Botanics of peace: visitation
I have a flower
whose name I don’t know
On the balcony,
its scent blends
with other smells:
hibiscus, rose,
a sprig of verbena
But they will be prodigies
of another morning:
for this flower
has bred leaves of astonishing
green,
minute and subtle
Bombs do not threaten it
nor do romantic winds,
missiles or tornados,
neither does it know, although so near,
of the jeopardy the salt
sea air will bring
And the blue autumn sky
disguised as summer
gives it such blessing,
as does the little water that I pour
And this must be
a sort of peace:
a botanical secret
of light

The squad Huddle boosted my spirits quite a bit. I also snagged Ze to help
with the poetry reading, and getting positive feedback from folks is always
awesome.
I was able to get all the seedlings outside between meetings, along with
triaging a lot of bugs from our squad bug channel.
I'm still not sure how to feel about how curt Andrii was this morning about my
not being prepared for the [[roam:One-on-One]] today. I think he was genuinely
miffed that I hadn't done my homework and I think the best takeaway for me is
to do better in the future and to take this growth stuff seriously.

Felt good waking up this morning. I was a little anxious going to bed because
I forgot to prepare a poem for the Wednesday Boost, but when I woke up I was
able to find a good poem translated from Portugese pretty easily.
My one-on-one with Andrii felt low energy today. He seemed frustrated that I
still hadn't done my 1-year plan and was not prepared to discuss OKRs that
might get me to that plan. Initially we started out having a pretty good
conversation, but by the end it felt like he just wanted to get off the call,
which I've never felt with anyone at 15Five. It's entirely possible there are
other things going on on his end, but combined with some rushed and crappy
pull requests from last night, the whole exchange has sent me down a crappy
mental state spiral to some sort of imposter syndrome. Like I'm just about to
be found out.
