Applying the rules of a game

Without my mind made up My hand is forced But this isn't a card game Consideration time isn't my advantage In fact without cards or made up minds This situation is just spilled inside thoughts and broken hearts With time and space sat knowingly on the periphery

I like this poem. It is interesting with the metaphor of cards to relate to the muddlings of the mind.

What’s the name of the game by ABBA comes to mind here Dilly, perhaps it’s the melancholic tone; in truth does it even need a name, but the stakes are there nonetheless, play them carefully and don’t get forced to go all in, Christ! this comment is sounding like a horoscope, so take it with a pinch of salt, a pensive piece for sure, cheers David

Dear DD, I loved your reflection on navigating life's challenges without a clear decision in mind makes me think. You eloquently express the feeling of being caught in the middle, with uncertainty surrounding you like a cloud. Yet, through your words, you convey a sense of introspection and resilience that is truly admirable. Keep exploring the complexities of the human experience with your thoughtful writing! - Blessings, My Dear Friend, Daniel
