Bingo machine

The numbers flash

I cannot see

Which one will pop out

B for me

I for thee

N for three

G for go

O for no

Which number will correlate?

Any or any at all

Will the cage switch?

The numbers might mix

In this horrid old machine

The caller wishes well

They may not partake

Even if online

Do not make no mistake

Take another look

Double takes make the act work

Took a minute

Too fast

Too slow

The old people growl

The young ones come with family

Maybe with one card

A lucky shot will win the prize but to my demise

Most of them

Lose.

Green Circle Spins

Round and round it goes When will it stop? The colour of grass and lime Make my skin as white as the snow That falls oh how heavily On the patchy gravel roads The money paid doesn’t getaway From the cracks and holes spotted daily Or the roadkill on the sidewalks As I walk down […]

This is a piece about first days of school, but this piece could still apply in many other challenging scenarios.
