extensions in nine

my come-we-stay comes in 24 hours but i cannot wish for time to roll faster fearing the yelling, go-slows and bribery i'll be involved in tomorrow. i have a piece of paper upon which months ago was spilled a stout beer whose borders i traced with a fountain pen when it dried. the paper is titled Studies on voice through verbal... and it looks intimidating. it has a business card paper-clipped to the corner and other documents are scattered around. this is so anyone who passes by will understand the magnitude of my work.

among the many areas needing future updates are the names of animals. some only have pidgin translations like bush baby and bush dog, while others only have long descriptions that do no serve for much like tùtù (it is a very lazy bird. it does no build its own nest. we do not eat. if you eat it then the time a man passes by your house and you are sitting in the house you jump and shake and your heart is beating. the igbos eat it. it is like a carving, it only sits still. it kills snakes, and reserves the corpse until maggots grow then eats but those maggots. it sees a snake and sits so waiting... or even better kEsangaa: you go enter the bush and take your palm to tap. you fell the tree and set your jug down to return the next day. you return and you see that bush animal. it has taken until! it is drunk, only sleeping on the ground. it has big eyes. small like bush baby.
