Hilarious as ever. This part had much a slower pace (obviously anything following a runaway car/murderous Vikings on hallucinogens is going to slow down by its very nature, or Substack itself might explode). Who in the F is the couple falling out of the cupboard? lol

Thank you so much for the shoutout! I really enjoyed what I’ve read of the Four Orders series, but I haven’t made it to part 5 yet. I skipped to the bottom of this post so I wouldn’t spoil anything!

Morning, Ben. I think rather than a Haiku, yours is a Senryu. They are about the human existence and frailties. Haiku is nature-based. I love your stuff!
