whammo moments

so
regular day, right?

full agenda

one by one
down the list

then whammo

an out of the blue
off the wall
out of all boxes

offer

sounds amazing
seems to fit perfectly
tastes so good

but
is it what it appears
is he who he says

will it change
will he change

will it end
like the other

have I already been here
already done this

and when the cost
gets too high

sizzle
sputter

gone

leaving pieces
shattered
broken

and while pondering all this

whammo # 2

large
does not look good
must come out
immediately
now
not tomorrow

this thing
suddenly there
where it had not been

silent
unbidden
unwelcome
unwanted

is anything what it seems

is anyone who they seem

betrayed
by flesh

once
twice

and the point
of even thinking of a third is .............?
