 Freeze



clutching onto a happy-ending-
tighter, stupid girl- you're really gonna need it.
We both know you're no fighter, stupid girl.
Stop stepping into the ring.
Tongue-tied defenses fall on deaf ears and
“bold” was never meant for you.
Backing down is more your style,
fairy-tales more your speed.
Chokeholding your serenity...
“scramble and freeze” may be what you need.

Something a little different; I challenged myself to try to write on one specific topic that I have a definitive opinion about.  The COVID pandemic and its effect on what's already (in my definitive opinion) a jeopardized state of authentic human communication. (Maybe "authentic" isn't the word I'm searching for as much as "optimal/whole" art of communication.)      I don't know anyone that says they expected the COVID-19 outbreak to occur when it did. I know a few “conspiracy theorists” who can cite “New World Order” predictions and some Bible enthusiasts who may say it was foretold in scripture, but when the virus hit in early 2020, no one was able to definitely state they knew what exactly this meant for humanity. As far as my experience goes, most people thought it was just something that would likely pass once we observed the precautions being implemented and like everything else in our instantly-gratified world, there would be a quick fix.

  I hadn't written anything based on a random prompt in a while and I decided it was time to flex some creative muscles.  So here I am- listening to music, as I stumble across this song that has become a favorite and I can't really explain why.  It's just got this beat- its oddness combined with its catchy monotony; I decided to make its title my prompt. This is what I got.  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ "The Girl That Stole My Tamagotchi" ( Song by Hot Sugar ) She was swift. It was an early Tuesday, or late Monday- depending on your relationship with time. She was smart. I wasn’t as careful as I should have been. I knew she was being shady- she wanted something. She was friendly and charming and I had forgotten there was a war happening. We all wanted to forget- to just be who we were before. I had gotten too comfortable with my status and I just overlooked all the signs. It was all there. I was just too entranced by the carefree performance. She knew. She knew I was desperate to l

Or do you feel at all? Not sure if I do, but at least I have the gall TO ADMIT IT you've got audacity therefore, so do I so don't move too quickly,  I'll soak it up and ring it out all over you what came first and who finishes last.... the chicken or the egg?
