thinking about blackberry picking and how, as soon as you get in the groove, it's near impossible to inquire yourself. also thinking about how i got in the groove and picked with no injury for an hour and developed a kind of hubris until i accidentally jerked my hand back when a particularly clingy berry finally loosened the plant and proceeded to murder my entire right hand on the surrounding thorns

#the blackberries that grow between the sheds arent messed with as much as the ones by the fence #so the berries are bigger and healthier and firmer and cling to the vine a lot more #and i stuck my hand in for a berry and it was so big and beautiful and the clingiest bastard ever #and when it let go i wasnt prepared and scraped up my hand. not very badly but it did bleed slightly #and i learned a very valuable lesson that day. i should not get that cocky around a plant that can fight back. or any plant at all #chatter
