from Marseille



 
It tries a person when ideas are so broad,
so plenty, and thoughtless at times.
Reading extensive menus,
people say,
"There's so many choices, I just can't choose."
Many fish in the sea.
 Many things to be tried.

If I was just so bold to be this man,
brave enough to strum something


"Hide and Go Seek"

 
'...' is so much fun
because you get to guess!
You find out where is good to crouch
or which cubbies are too obvious to hide.
There's so much to discover!


 
For Example: 
A Muslim woman
bows her head and holds out a grateful hand;
 raises her eyes as someone passes,
knowing that, while he gave her some bits,
he didn't notice who she was.



Needle(ss) to say, you can hide anywhere.
Sometimes you don't have to try.
Sometimes you don't try and therefore
it's obvious where you are,
so people don't care.
These people desire a challenge.

Check the shadows for something darker,
preferably with a lid,
so that you can burst out when your seeker has given up.
 
Sometimes, clutter is great for hiding,
but be careful.
While it is useful, clutter can
distract the hider, much in the way
of fantastic antique shops,
allowing him to be found by his seeker.

When you have found that perfect spot,
never leave too soon, or the seeker
will spot you on his way out to search.
Likewise, if you stay too long,
you will be caught on his way back to base.
It is best to stay quiet and listen
for your cue
rather than peaking about.
Remember, your eyes are in the middle
of your head, whereas your ears
can perk around corners.

One last note for seekers:
Never, for any reason, give up.
You didn't search everywhere,
made obvious by the point that 
the hider has not been found.
If you shout, "I give up, where are ya?"
you lose the pleasure of
discovering.
Finally, don't be afraid to play
Hot-or-Cold.
This game helps beginner and intermediate
players of Hide and Go Seek
follow their ears
to weed out obvious spots
and bring forth his next potential hideaway.
