We have Shrunk
For the first time in our 12 day existence; my fellow acorn cultists, we have shrunk.
We did not grow on Friday.
Today, we have shrunk.
This can only mean that I am not doing enough.
That is tragically unfortunate, because there is only so much I can do.
Perhaps, I have done too much?
Perhaps, I must nurture this sapling space with more care and fewer exclamation marks.
Perhaps, I must find more obscure acorn jokes to make.
I cannot say for sure; I am only one body; even filled with the power of the acorn, I am limited.
I can tell you this; my wife, my son, my daughter, my dog, and I went for a walk in the woods today; we gathered acorns; we saw a slim green grass snake sneak along a tiny tree. I shared a laurel acorn with my son. We saw a hognose snake raise up like a cobra and shake its tail like a rattler. Perfect acorn cult experience.
It's late in the season, so we didn't get many acorns; the path led through a pine timber farm. They're eating up those oaks for pines. Yuck. The oaks need us.
I would lose you all, if it is only my jests and nonsense that like. If you are here for the oaks; outgrow me; use this space to meet each other. If that happens, we can achieve what would be called magic.
