Nolo Contendere



While it may seem like a grand idea, in reality you 
gain very little out here - the sun shrieks out of its 
azure blue like an omnipotent despot used to this 
style of rule, and I need to adjust th’ scheme of a 
few things just to be able to see my PC screen; if 
my Willy Wagtail cobber’s right, and he’d know a 
heap more’n me, I’ll still need sunnies, plus a hat 
& warm clothes t’ combat this intent-on-driving-

me-back-inside chilling breeze; - well, if it gets to 
that stage any benefit’s ambushed by discomfort 
outweighing the pastoral novelty - but we’ll see; I 
appreciate a distraction plays the benign game in 
pursuit of its own invisible ends, & in th’ way only 
it decides, so really, I’m nolo contendere anyway
