Sevenling (close your eyes)
Close your eyes and pretend it isn’t real;
or that it’s real and you just can’t see it;
or that there it is, but it’s just a hoax.
Do whatever you want to do, or
whatever you think is best.
Whatever.
Okay, then. Heads or tails?

Faith only goes so far, it seems.
I tried closing my eyes, but it’s still there, and I still can’t see it!
Best to avoid everyone they might do you harm!
Loved the hint of mystery – and then the surprise finish.
Yes, close your eyes and fill your heart with faith. 🙂
This skims the frustration into a coin toss…an eerie image to end on.
This confuses me in a very good way!
Hmm, this pandemic is real, head or tails won’t cut it. But yes we need to close our eyes in faith thinking of every way we can deal with it
Happy Sunday. Thanks for dropping by my sumie Sunday today
