Today the keeper worked at home in the afternoon, after being at meetings in the morning. It was sunny out and she dragged all of her work outside. It seemed like a good arrangement. She brought out my Moses basket to the deck too. Then I was placed inside and then she went out walking before dinner. She came across a strangely disturbing straw art piece lying on the side of the road. A bit spooky. A bit unsettling. Some people stopped her to ask what it was about. She almost brought it home with her, but it would have been too bizarre to carry through the streets. I am happy she left it there. But at the same time, if it is still there tomorrow we may remove it, or maybe we shouldn't. It does say something about the value placed on human life these days, and in that, it becomes shocking. But we hope that others do not pass blithely by.
