A full head and an empty shelf.
The Anti-Law of Consumption — Always taking in, never putting out.
Right of the triangle · Contributive
Olivine carried up from the mantle — the deep earth's contribution to the surface.
I arrive with something in my hands.
How to move over
- 1Name it without shame: today you were standing on consuming.
- 2Say the law once — The Law of Production — and bow to it. That bow is obeisance.
- 3Do one small thing only contributive would do, inside the next hour.
- 4Put on the robe: carry Peridot for the rest of the day as the sign you switched sides.
The switch of the whole day
- — Make one thing today, however small.
- — Ship it where someone can use it.
- — Let building outweigh consuming this week.
