geometry

i jumped quickly up to check

since it sounded to my mama’s ears

like something had fallen badly down the stairs to the 2nd floor.

instead, i find that my 7 & 8 yr olds

are throwing superballs,

by the handful,

down the stairway to watch them hit the half dutch door at the bottom

and bounce about in the dead end created by it.

(aka: mostly controlled chaos).

but, how unlikely,

as in ‘you couldn’t do that again if you tried’,

is it that one brightly colored ball with a mind of its own

would have bounded down, strick bottom, and then flew at the exact angle

to land specifically like this?

i find this funny, since today ‘x’ definitely marks the spot

where you will mostly find me

catching up on what has backed up during my time at the ocean.

post vacay, i’m relaxed and refreshed and ready to have at it.

on top of that, now i’m laughing

so it’s all good.

‘flew’ taken from 16:26 of acts.
