Day 138. Wednesday. June 17. 2 × 3 × 23
Interior of a small stone cottage on a WEDNESDAY in mid-June — the day of THE PATTERN AT THE MIDPOINT. Day 138 = 2 × 3 × 23, sphenic. Three fresh marks at the base of the tally wall — stake, companion, pattern — the tipping point where the row becomes more present than absent. The creature at midweek pattern warmth, bioluminescence at its settled confirming level. The mug at Day 9, the minimum. The ceiling-circle gone — bare stone. The room lit by only two sources on the day of three. The piano at 30, also sphenic. Four days to solstice. The pattern at the midpoint. The eve of renewal.
