“and so,” you said, “that’s it.”
You turned off the light
and closed the door.
I blinked in darkness
waiting
because
“it”
was not really
“that.”

LoL. I can interpret this poem very many different ways…
Exactly.
Bruised ego
Sheltered Pride
The man heard giggling
And ran away to hide.;)
You know, when I wrote this one, I did not consider that particular interpretation! lol
I tend to go a bit colorful with my interpretations.

Yes, the CEO did not like his FlashPoint presentation.;)
Love it Shawn!!!
I’m glad.

I love the blink in darkness; such a subtle touch. KK’s interpretation was the first one that came to my mind as well. 🙂 —–Chagall
