I Fought the Bot … and the Bot Won

[Even amid the chaos we live in, sometimes one needs a distraction.  After being encouraged by friends for quite a while to do so, in recent months I have taken up the New York Times’ online Wordle game.  For those of you who aren’t familiar with Wordle, skip this one.  For those who proceed, you know the tune. 😊]

Starin’ at the squares and feelin’ dumb
I fought the Bot and the Bot won                            
I fought the Bot and the Bot won

I needed ideas ’cause I had none
I fought the Bot and the Bot won
I fought the Bot and the Bot won

I used my words, and it feels so bad
Guess my race is done
It’s the best guess that I ever had
I fought the Bot and the Bot won
I fought the Bot and the Bot won

Just prayin’ for a good six run
I fought the Bot and the Bot won
I fought the Bot and the Bot won

I missed my tries and I lost my run
I fought the Bot and the Bot won
I fought the Bot and the Bot won

I used my words, and it feels so bad
Guess my race is done
It’s the best guess that I ever had
I fought the Bot and the Bot won
I fought the Bot  … and the Bot won.

[I hate that snarky Bot – particularly for the clearly patronizing way he congratulates me on the rare occasions when I meet his expectations.  😉]  

We obviously have more serious ahead of us.  In the meantime, enjoy the coming of spring.
