The Perfect Retort


In response to The Daily Post’s weekly writing challenge: “Hindsight is 20-20.”

Hindsight is 20-20.

And in retrospect,

We can always have the perfect comeback line.

For all the times,

For all the barbs,

For all the taunts,

For all the rants,

If there was just one perfect retort,

If there was just one perfect answer,

But wait a second,

There is:

It’s termed success.

Success silences anyone and everyone.
