When a person isn't ready for bed yet and literature isn't ready to go back on the shelf, it's nice to have some supplies on hand. Another log, more treats, a little left in the pot. Or volume 4 of a trilogy that isn't a series but now has a bonus track. Added extras: literary confections, asides, leftovers. Parerga yes. Paralipomena no. Is there anything lasting? But there are remnants: important, leftover, persistent, hanging on, fresh. Fresh from the content: A mysterious box is being carried. An opposite is postulated. Money is at stake or not. Made into a prayer book (by a swallow). A horse waves over. Sushi is defined (sticky meets raw; just like in politics). In the reading lens, Arno Robinson Crusoe Schmidt appears. Even shorter films and brief texts run in unsynchronology. Steps on blue schemes.
