Why I decide when
Tuning is not about his need. Tuning is not about relief. Tuning is about this house. This orbit. This return. That’s why I decide when.
I do not leave tuning to chance.
I do not leave his release to whim.
I do not guess at the rhythm of my house.
I decide when.
Because he is not random.
Because I am not careless.
Because this house is not chaos.
I tune him like an instrument
A man is simple.
That is not an insult.
That is his glory.
He is power. Drive. Impulse.
Like a string pulled tight.
Like a drum waiting to sound.
But power without tuning is noise.
And I do not fill my house with noise.
This is not control. This is care
I tune him often — at first.
