Did you see that? It's one of those "Oh F**K!" moments. These are the moments @calumam talked about in his Eureka essay.
But why limit this to just one moment?
What if every moment could be an "Oh F**K!" moment?
A little poem:
Beyond the senses
By Mineopoly
A moment is
A baby born
A Balloon popping
Getting dressed in the morning
The day’s first cigarette
Smelling fresh flowers
The swish of the net
A dandelion’s seed
Flying on a swing
Knitting a sweater
Worming a hook
A guitar string snap
A bra string strap
A dive in the pool
The kick of a ball
An egg on a frying pan
Opening the window drapes
Flapping the bed sheets
A parachute above your head
First base
First Wheelie
First fly fish
First kiss
First F@&K
First screw
Holding hands at school
A baby’s footprint
A carbon foot print
Washed away in the sand
The morning after
With tears
Flying high
Landing at a doorstep
The click of a mouse
The clack of a mailbox
The bust of a silhouette
The sound of music
Swishing through a net
Flying through the air
Hands raised
Feet muddled
Missing the bus
Late for school
A strike!
No, a spare.
Did the Frisbee land there?
A parking ticket
Playing in the mud
Chasing a flock of geese
Slicing long division
Exact incision
Three in a row
Ready to go
Put the needle on the record
And flow
One kiss in time square
Eye liner
Close call
Last call
Starting the mower
A bag of chips
This one pricks
A bubble pops
A fish gets chopped
A page is turned
Cartwheels spin
Cheese sliced
Aunt Mae is nice
A bubble is burst
One shot of thirst
A little sugar
For the ride
Watch what’s inside.
Lost your balloon?
It’s on the moon.
This poem was prompted by @hranhuk's question:
"What would life be like if it wasn't for enjoying the moments?"
The answer of course is: "It wouldn't be."
