Mnemonic


[qi-] Kirby is in [1] front of the [-an] pawn shop where he has gathered a 山 mountain of second-hand 甘 baskets that he has piled on the patchy pawn shop lawn. He just "bought" them at a deep discount inside. He floats around with a bunch of unpaid pawn shop 欠 bills that he 嵌 inlays between the crevices of the 甘 basket 山 mountain. It seems to be some sort of 欠 bill-嵌 inlaid artistic sculpture of sorts.
