If Only You Knew

100 words for a Tuesday morning

The waiting. The checking. The double-checking. Five times now.

Navigating the land mines of acceptability.

Walking the tightrope in the name of professionalism.

Don’t be too much, but be enough. Aim for the bullseye of charm personified.

Relate. “We’re all in the same boat, aren’t we?”

“All fighting the same fight, yeah?”

The fall into the cracks is a long dark one.

Just to know. To live in the answer

Instead of swimming against your mind.

Up the karma quota. Send good vibes.

A booster shot for the soul.

Then it comes.

And now you know.
