In the dark
We were watching TV last night when everything went black. I mean, black as the inside of a lump of coal, black as Donald Trump’s soul, so black that for a few minutes we remained frozen, scared to move in case we ended up spinning off into space…well, I’m exaggerating, just a little, partly because not being able to find even a sliver of light anywhere makes me uncomfortable and partly because just saying ‘The lights went out’ is a tad boring. But total darkness is not a friend to someone who needs to see where her feet are even on a sunny summer day. Someone could be moving walls and setting traps for me to fall into or trip over…oh there I go, exaggerating again.
Using his phone as a light source . . . contd.
