For this week's #promptcombo from @dragonslayerma.bsky.social about #simplepleasures a true story!!

All it took was a broken
toilet pedestal to take us back
to the wild, to the art of finding
a place to leave our spoor where
we hope it doesnt give us away -
the joy of a supermarket toilet,
a pub with facilities open to
non-patrons, an overnight hotel
equipped with nothing but
the clothes we stand up in.

You capture such a great atmosphere in this James - a heady mix of confusion and calm........ I did look it up: extraordinary - you evoke the strangeness superbly 👏👏
