The incongruous and gratuitous. Free work done out of love. Power through service. Medicine from poison. Reborn steel. Meeting God in darkness. Palindromes. Animal ecstasy. Abundance. Sweat lodges and other bonding rituals. Fortune cookies. Crane optimism. Offensive art. Games with no rules. Body love. Healing pain. Orgasmic empathy. Truth. Mischief. Love.
The rebelliosly kind, the affably unpredictable, the insanely poised masters of supernatural mischief. And Owen and Mzee.
