Closing Rings in Circles (Author + Midjourney)

This text was started while walking circles inside my house. Apple Watch rings are moving me in rings. I want to fully close them every day because they are beautiful. I don’t know. Beginning of the sentence which will end somehow. During one home circle I move the watch ring by 1 kcal. 9% still remaining. Ouch, lots of words to be written as I write one word after every lap. Head is spinning in circles. Walking. Walking without shoes. Will go straight to bed after finishing this. Don’t know what to write next. Head is empty. Word. Slippers. Leg itching. Knees bending. How much still to go? 4% more. Can’t think. Writing. Word. What? 3% What? Will fall. Alone. Bending. Verylongword. Stop. Can’t. Can’t. Idiot. Helpless. No. 1%. Little legs. Falling. Word.

This was a walking-writing meditation I invented to intellectually close Apple Watch rings and unintentionally torture myself. It took 40 minutes. Rings got closed and my mind went completely blank. One thing is obvious — closing rings every day is so hard I started losing my mind.
