Your Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is โpitch.โ Use it as a noun, use it as a verb, use it way youโd like. Have fun!
As my voice gets older my pitch wiggles around. I’m trying something new. Straw exercises. I couldn’t find any straws around here. We don’t have fast food here. So I was out of luck?
Nope. I diamond paint. So:
The tool to pick up the drills. I have a nice ergonomic one but each painting comes with these. I took out the metal bit and voila, a straw. Now I can work on my voice and pitch.
I bet you thought I’d pitch a sale about erecting an easy pitch tent.
Straw in the country is important. Heck, it’s what keeps our chickens warm. My brother stacked a few bales on the west side of the coop to keep the wind out. He uses it for nesting material in their boxes.
There’s a whole theory of no weed gardening based on piles of straw. It helps keep down weeds around flowers or trees. It breaks down to mulch.
Ah, but here there are too many rodents that eat your plants before you even get started. So mostly you need to build rodent safe raised box gardens. That takes money we don’t have. Lumber isn’t cheap. Maybe someday we’ll get to try it.
Not my picture but we are surrounded by fields like this.
Drinking straws have gone back to paper to be good to the earth

Books, games, music, and life โ filtered through the mind of a writer, drummer, and philosopher who thinks too deeply about all of it. If it moves something in your chest, I'm interested.
