Cube

People watching on[[Cuba street ->Buckets]] its one of my favourite things to do. It is a pastiche of [[languages->Immigration]]. A sensory overload of [[noise->buskers]],[[smells ->fried food]]and [[colour->Hair]]. There are siblings who have therapy bunnies [[Nixie and Oscar.->anxiety.]] Sitting on a bench right in the middle of the [[Wellington->Beehive]] near me on another bench are an old couple talking about having fish and chips at the [[wharf.->Solice in the wind.]] A couple of guys who walk behind your seat, and one says to his mate, "yeah, so a friend said he has a [[Gun->Buy back]], and I'm like, so do you train and he's like, aww nah, not realy...". The mother and daughter walk by in front of me, the child trying to relaese herself from the grip of her mother, the little girl wails and twists in an effort to [[escape->Parenting]]. [[Daytime heat->Night time.]]has waves of crowds, is every 7th one a big one, where are they going too when they disperse? In the day time there are [[homeless->danger]] people sleeping in relative safety of the shopping crowds. Preparing for the watchful and wakeful

can we slow down please? And just sit together.(click-replace:"together.")[and listen.] <video src="http://219.89.200.105/files/bells%20and%20buckets.mp4" width="640"height="420"autoplay></videos>

being the capital of of New Zealand there are lots of topical and contentious laws being passed. One of the most recent was as a reult of the biggest and most horrific the massacre of people at worship, resulted in the [[Purchase->Buy back]] Anti [[smacking->Parenting]] bill was another contentious bill brought into effect in the early 2000's by Sue Bradford, a socially minded politician, who was effective on drawing attention to unpalatable. Also the flood of foreigners has led some say to

Those who can are indifferent to the agony of those who can't. When you are poppoing out the babies with no money, it is easy to have no sympathy for those who spend thousands of fertility treatment, and medical assistance to create the [[miracle.]]

The gun buy back was met with a lot of hostilaity from some in the hunting commintity. But mostly people seemed pleased it was taking New Zealand away from the gun culture of America. There were rumours the NRA had sent lobbyists to influence and school local gun groups on how to apply pressure to government, I don't know if this is true, but it sounds like a tactic they might use. The one weird thing to spring up was [[The Gun Warehouse->anxiety.]] Which I personally hoped wasn't for bargains of any kind.

[[Pedestrian precinct.->People watching.]]

Tell me you love me as we clutch and cling to each other. Built up we(click-replace:"walk")[stride, hand in hand,] walk together into the city. We will talk to people down and up. No-one to us will be a [[ghoul.->danger]]

Too many people not from here taking everything we rightfully stole from someone else. In a land of migrants and collonisation it isn't allowed to be covetous or without empathy for those wanting to find a better life. If a Syrian escaping from torture and persecution wants to set up selling [[fried food]], to drunks after the rdgy, who are we to stop them.

I am ashamed of the plastic packaged junk that I have consumed, and will be consumed by others on my behalf for millenium.

Have you ever had a hair disaster? "IM SORRY BRAD MONDO"[[BRAD MONDO->Watching.]]

Guns give me stress, and I think society would do better to have [[anxiety bunnies->buskers]], than access to AK-47 or any semi automatic or assault weapon. I know children give people [[stress->Parenting]].

Sometimes i get afraid. Generally it passes, just a little ennui. But sometimes those around me make it worse. Is it me or you that has [[anxiety.]]

As an athiest I don't truck with miracles. But other feelings will (click-replace:"fill")[mind]fill the .[[gap->Solice in the wind.]]
