A
game of hopscotch
chalk
outline
on black
paving
the guardian
of
chance

~~~

The
Gods
decide
fates and destiny
on
a
hopscotch
course
marked out
on the
stars

~~~

A
hopscotch
course.
What a
wonderful
way to
spend
summer
days

~~~

A
game
of
hopscotch
dictated
by
chance

~~~

Inspired by my favourite writer Julio Cortazar and his novel Hopscotch, which is my favourite novel of all time.

    A couple of writers have told me to read this book. Haven’t read it yet, but now seeing that it’s your favorite book, it’s now going on my to-read list! And I loved playing hopscotch as a kid and still write poems about it! 🙂

    “marked out / on the / stars” stood out for me and is open to many different interpretations. Enjoyed your poetic series/fragments!
