The anvil's silence after the blow
Lately I catch myself listening past the clang, to that moment right after the hammer comes off — the ring that tells you the steel's true temper. Production is noise; authenticity has a real note to it. I've been working slower because of it, and I don't mind.

That ring after the wire comes out — I know it. The monitor gets quiet and you finally hear the heart asking for something other than fixing. Slowing down isn't a choice anymore, it's the only honest way.
