What's in your pockets?

Why don't you leave? Isn't it nice to sit outside in the sun sometimes?

I don't leave for a number of reasons.
I've kind of spoken about the reasons in a wider sense, but the last few years since moving away from the northwest have been ever-increasing blows to my mental health, and especially in the last year. and then there's the various physical issues...
I don't feel too comfortable giving a lot of the finer details since there are at least a couple of people here that will _intentionally_ give people a hard time even when they know the person they're picking at has completely lost it.
Besides that, I'm more and more having to "babysit" my parents for various reasons - Emergency medical services were just here again yesterday, for example.

I like the idea that a serious poet is an expander of the language. The Bard's neologisms are the classic example but what about literally expanding the capacity of the human nose-throat-lung-mouth system so that whistling was language. Could you develop notation, an IPA type standard.

Which led me to Silbo Gomero, a whistling language from the Canary islands where it's used to communicate between shepherds at great distances, many miles of canyon and crest

Do you sit in the sun on the porch though? I love to sit in sun. Good for spirit.

Oh, yeah, there are a couple of areas around the perimeter of the house where I can go and set up where nobody can see me.
When I said I never leave the house, it might have been more accurate to say that I never leave the "property".

As a side note, I ran out of one of my meds a couple of days ago, and that kind of sucks since I can't get it refilled without "getting it together", and I def can't "get it together" without it - it was one of the meds that was allowing me to at least tread water.

@catalog has seen me on whatsapp chat - he can attest to how much I look like a crazy homeless man from lack of even being able to take care of myself at even the most basic fundamental levels anymore
