A (wise) man of two faces

Ho! Ho! Hehe!

Rushing around at the last minute doing work and planning mischief.

I sight my targets, reach forward, then draw back while steadying my breath.

Thinking ‘bout a gift for a special someone this holiday season.

Drumming my fingers, waiting, wondering, dancing on the dagger’s edge.

A turbulent storm cut down by pale, thin edges to a fleeting calm.

(Don’t forget to smile. ^_^)

A flurry of white tugs at my memories and pulls out my smile.

A first step, taken with fear and trepidation, towards the unknown.
