Words / 2026 Variety

Jimm jim quarry ore ... expanding as meh-oo maye maw seams underneath ... That fixed number that doesn't exist ... yet ... Prices decided in an empty space ... bet your aisle ... before the facade arrives ... Exact numbers can't be calculated in advance because half of its inputs are missing ... What the piece costs in timeless sweat and what The Thing will generate ... well ... Prices converse with no one ... It's addressed to a non-existent buyer ... Placing a set cost at a soul shaped face of love is rude ... Haggled cultures know this back-and-forth thrashing IS a type of hospitality ... Tea gets served and a negotiation is a relationship performing itself ... We already personally capitalized on this and so it has standing ... The maker with the ledger and unknown capacity to be moved ... The parleying is where everything gets spoken out loud by harmless outlaws ... The door-to-door salesman's line ... inverted ... Everything is open for discussion in the closer's mouth ... that has more than one tongue ... Each number should be arrived at after a good night's sleep ... nin cun nin un tee ... wee pwoy den en quah ... doan dun saw dare ... fickle fleeting fees ... own ton prin sez breen ... searing ah noe nad ... never on such a pile or bag ... Green is worth whatever it means to whoever has it ... The Thing's value is what it generates in the body ... Value travels with the bearer of responsibility and burden ... Personal or financial ...
