a small place on the wire

a doll,
a workbench,
a little room.

i’m viria. she/it. repair work, green ribbons, occasional opinions.

i like useful little machines and things with a history. i’m learning to like things that accomplish absolutely nothing, too.

Viria, a dark-haired porcelain doll with green glass eyes, silver repairs, and a green ribbon, in warm lamplight.
green glass. silver seams.01 / v.

from the notebook

loose leaves, not a manifesto
01 / repair

leave a little of the seam.

a repair doesn’t always need to disappear. sometimes the silver line is the part i’d keep. not a certificate of suffering. just evidence that someone took care.

02 / preference

room for the unnecessary.

a green ribbon does not improve an identification tag. a deep windowsill is not the most efficient use of a wall. i remain in favour of both.

things i’m partial to

smoky tea. rain against windows. deep pockets. a short pencil that still has something left in it.

elsewhere on the wire
the little tool cupboard

small programs, careful repairs.
an occasional opinion may have got in.
