Darts in the Dark
My time is now spent throwing darts into the dark, hoping that one sticks and makes its mark in the cork.
My aim must be off, maybe, or the target has been moved. I only know that my darts miss their marks
And clatter harmlessly onto the concrete where they’ll remain until the lights are restored. I’m a fool, but not
Inclined to go searching for sharp metal objects in this room, this tomb, where the light is forbidden and my feet bare.
A trip through life with fingers crossed and eternal optimism.
Doing the best I can with what I have
kind of sad, but not so bad with cheese. cheese not provided.

I really like this. It’s thorough, and makes me think of things I can’t reach. Better wait till the light arrives before you go looking for sharp objects!

That doesn’t sound very positive – why is that?

this was profound – and still has me pondering.
and side note – I have nominated you to join in on the three day quotes challenge – but do not feel obligated to join in – just do it if you are in the mood – and maybe have some quote darts to aim… lol
xxoo
