Life
A fleeting glimpse into this "game" reveals how truly unfair life is.
Little children goaded along told to mind their own business.
The boy sits with his head down, alone
they ignored his please as he would beg and moan
Cold, dying, beggar lies on the city street
trampled upon by greed-carried feet,
The druggie shakes uncontrollably, violently ill
Pin-p***k in deathly silence, rush of no will
Rich man sits upon a pile of dirty gold,
No true love for him to warmly hold,
We trick ourselves with weak delusions,
reveling in collections of dour illusions,
This orphans bones are not so strong,
for family, his heart will always long,
A widow weeps for what feels like years,
over long lost relations, do fall her tears,
The hopeless romantic dies inside, it seems
living an existence of unfulfilled dreams,
Our days are not all actually unfair,
'Tis but a word we made up, without forethought or care
