Duck Duck (2024 challenge day 10)

Folder: 
2024

maybe today the universe decided to play a game of duck duck goose with me

I would say I’m waiting for the next shoe

but I think I’m even out of foot protection

broke the rules once a few years ago and I’m still paying the price

broke my back playing another game I was roped into

others’ fraying rope still intact while my supply keeps getting stolen

stuck in myself dancing dizzy

for an audience not paying attention

wait a minute the bass pounds within me

another music moment too real

so my anxiety spins in all the other rooms

perfect time, universe, for you to–

goose.
