Like A Video Game (Magic & Mayhem)

Remember M&M's? (or Smarties, for that matter)

I got the local variant. 

Suger-coated mayhem :)

 

A kitchen so indifferent, had lost all of its ambitions. 

The child, still innocent, takes another snack. 

 

And turns on the Video Game. 


'I'll just have to get through to the next level'

 

And suddenly you remember: 

 

This world of magic and mayhem is all there is

 

It could always, somehow, suddenly, kiss you on the cheek. :)
