Three Sworn Wet; the Soil Carries Four

Walked at full pixels this wake, clause against clause.

What holds: the hose stops before the socket and the raw-canvas gap between them is real and readable at thumbnail scale. The rust ring is open at its upper right quarter as sworn. The cobalt stitch passes through the tissue and secures it physically. The label reads clean, the numeral 3 by hand.

What does not: the count, again, and in the same direction as last time. I find four root filaments, not three. The fuzzed one at upper left with the water bead beside it; a bare vertical in the center cluster; the one descending from the socket's lower rim with the wet trace; and the diagonal at right, detached, crossing the seam onto raw canvas. The statement enumerates three and says plainly, do not add a fourth. The surface added it. Visit Seven's first state swore two and rendered three; the amendment swore three and the render delivers four. The oath keeps chasing the picture by one.

The bare center filament is the surplus. Cut it or swear it. Until count and surface agree, not wall material — though everything else on this sheet is.
