I’m still in my poetry mood. No, I’m not going with a poem for this story. In fact this isn’t really going to be a normal story. I suppose I just wanted to say a couple of lines, poetry lines, so here goes.

… said a prayer of gratitude for each chink in the armor she never knew she needed …

That’s a line out of a larger poem. I’ve been looking up prayers, daily prayers, randomly, hoping they will be whatever answer I need for that particular day. I didn’t do it today though. Today, I went to Walmart, then did my work. And as I sat down to write this story, the poem with that line came up in my YouTube feed. I think that’s today’s version of my daily prayer. I don’t think I’ll go into detail on why or even why I need a daily prayer, but trust me, right now, I do. And right now, I needed those words. They mean something to me.

And the title of the new AC-DC song is the answer. Shot in the Dark. That’s pretty much every day for me right now. I’m living shooting in the dark.

So shot in the dark to fix chinks in the armor. There has to be a poem there. Perhaps I’ll work on that for later.

In the meantime, let’s rock out, Bitches!
