Random Arrows

Stuff like this should remain hidden between the ears.

I shot an arrow into the air.
It fell to earth and killed a bear.







Now, I wonder if it was fair;
That random arrow over there?

The question sounds simple enough, yet it goes much deeper, doesn't it? Fairness, to me at least, is an illusion based on personal beliefs. It wasn't fair nor unfair that the random arrow killed the bear. It just was.
No waste of time.

I saw him kill the bear.
No accident it was not fair.
A devilish delinquent plan.
He shot the bear and then he ran.

I have not visited in a while but I'm glad I did. You are the master of common sense...:)

[Tam Warink]

This one is very interesting! Deep and thoughtful. Now this kind is something I haven't done yet. Thanks for this, Tam! :x

Blue, sometimes we find what we are looking for but in ways that are most unexpected. It is the ambiguous nature of these things that is most puzzling.

Perhaps if more "wasted" their time
less time would be ...wasted. - ya know?

[Tam Warink]

I know (what you mean), Chris. Thanks for the quick peek and the commentary; much appreciated.

Oh my poet, most cantankerous.

I had plans to go to the fair
a magical place
where everything made sense
Alas, there was nothing there

[Tam Warink]

My fair friend, Pryde! Yes, I am... or rather can be, most cantankerous. I wallow in the definition: bad-tempered (not usually), argumentative (occasionally, well, OK, a lot of the time), and uncooperative (it depends). But, I am most assuredly curious by what your definition of "making sense" might be. That's a two-headed coin if ever there was one. [P.S. I'm about ready to run your stuff through the magic Stat-O-tron; should be interesting.]

[Pryde Foltz]

I kid on the cantankerous. The poem was in answer to yours--make sense equals seems fair. You know that magical place where the world is a fair. Good to have you back.

Thank you for missing me. I feel the embrace of your words calling. I've missed reading you too...
