Jumped out of my skin.

Got a thunderstorm rolling through,
which is always fun, but I just got a
flashbang outside the window.

Not a flash bang from over there, nor
a flash-bang, from a bit more near,
but a FLASHBANG !! right here !

Now I’ve just got two more.
They are too scary!!!

Up there with things over which one exercises
no control; like fire, tsunami, landslide and the
crazy people with automatic weapons, some
political contenders, an angry woman…
