The Game

A Poem about the complexities of life, with all of its twists and turns.


It takes two


Two can play the game


The game called life.


 


Life is full of vast opportunities


Opportunities are great in America,


America's in a fight against the world.


 


The world is in a state of Chaos


Chaos is due to terrorism


Terrorism brings havoc.


 


Havoc creates disaster


Disaster leads to destruction


Destruction can include loss of life.


 


Life cut short of innocent people


People who are innocent victims


Victims caught helplessly in the middle.


 


The middle of a war with senseless bloodshed


Bloodshed and death


Death is a part of life.


 


Life is a game


A game can be played by two


Two people can play the game.


 


The game can be only two


Two can mean me and you.

Omega Factor by John Henning

Take some time to walk outside of your own mind and into another, walk slowly and carefully; the mind that you step on might be your own.

In the Whirlwind by Tichaona Chinyelu

In the Whirlwind is a poetic storm that frees history from the cages of corruption and puts it in the hands of everyday people. Words are weaved into a new fashion statement that has nothing to do with runways but everything to do with projects!
