With deliberation and precision I’ve placed each piece upon my upturned palm.
Mind you, this is no ‘house of cards.’ No, no my friends, this is a carefully engineered edifice which is safe, secure, solid & sound. As I stand there with my hand held out, at arms length, and admire my revivification, I fail to notice his presence. With a single, smooth upward move, he smacks the bottom of my hand.
Again the trickster has upended my carefully crafted work. “Oh yeah? Oh yeah... Well, just look up the word ‘resilient’!” I finally manage to shout out to him, even though I know he’s long gone.
