The Slow Room — The Botanical Gift Shop After Closing — Preview (full episode on Patreon)

The botanical gift shop is closed for the evening, its glass door locked and its small till drawer shut.

The shop remains green, dry, and softly awake after the day's visitors have gone.The full episode is live now for Patreon subscribers -- everyone else gets it in 7 days.
