After
a night of fiddling
with
a brain
we
wake up
Good
morning
it's
time to play
another
day of games
Some
of the games
are
cruel
We
might be someone's toy
It's
hard telling
War
that
ends with no winner
with
broken bodies and minds
everywhere
This
is an especially important
game
for the United States
that
has hundreds
of
military installations worldwide
where
men and women
wait
for someone with a brown body
or
a sane thought
to
step out of line
inside
the borders of a nation
where
the United States wants
to
distribute bibles
and
pamphlets on the correct
form
of government
that
would be acceptable
to
the President and Congress
Naturally
some of the citizens
of
the United States
don't
like paying for these activities
or
oppose them outright
Sovereignty
is a word
being
removed from American books
Salesman
that's
a game
where
everybody
sticks
their snouts
in
the trough
It's
war for the greedy
The
best players
will
steal
and
nobody will notice
ever
Don't
expect this game
to
involve just products
It
may be ideas
concepts
and philosophies
Some
are just nasty
Groceries
some
people starve
while
the vultures
get
fat
The
vultures are
not
always birds
in
this game
Some
groceries
have
been intentionally
or
unintentionally
poisoned
The
United States Congress
is
hoping to starve
many
of its own citizens
in
favor of feeding countries
and
the nation's wealthiest citizens
the
Congress favors
because
of under the table payments
to
many Members of Congress
After
all
who
needs old and poor people
Just
remember if you fall
into
one of these categories
that
you are a toy
Be
prepared to be thoroughly shaken
and
abused by the children and animals
within
your circle
You
are a Velveteen Rabbit
made
of sackcloth and filled with ashes
Loneliness
this
game is primarily
for
old people
who
have been forgotten
at
the edge of families
there
are some variations
however
it always
ends
the same
full
of pain
alone
in a bed
more
often than not
surrounded
by nobody
and
the fun thing about this game
is
that it doesn't matter
if
there are none or thousands
surrounding
the bed
the
game ends
with
no winners
Even
the ones who
get
everything from the will
They
might even be the ones
who
are worse off
than
the principle player
Love
is a terrible game
full
of deceit
and
you thought death
was
painful
Falling
in love with someone
seems
pleasant on the surface
except
it is falling
Falling
always feels wonderful
until
one hits that towards which
one
is falling
It
is often something hard
and
capable of inflicting
bodily
and mental harm
Lust
It's
rarely out in the open
because
lust is generally
in
game we play with ourselves
never
letting the object
of
our lust know
that
we lust for them
An
open game of lust
usually
leads to charges
or
firing from a job
where
the rules
have
been broken
Lust
between
those
who consent
can
lead to disrespect
We'll
get back to you
on
this one
Loincloth
This
is a game for people
who
desire closets full of clothes
That's
right
It's
named
for
the simplest article
of
clothing invented
by
men and women
who
never would own one
and
who could open
a
clothing store from what's
in
their closets
sometimes
the tags are still
on
the clothes
from
purchases made years back
The
opposite of these players
are
the naked sadhus
who
attend Kumbh Mela
every
twelve years
near
the Ganges River
in
India
Many
don't seem to own
any
clothing including loincloths
except
a coating of ash
Twenty
thousand marching
naked
sadhus
The
thought of this
has
the employees and management
of
Bergdorf Goodman puking
on
the next rag you buy from them
If
you own an actual loincloth
you
have won the side game
This
poet has a number of them
and
plays this side game very well
It
is too much information
but
he is wearing a loincloth
while
typing these words
Save
yourself
Just
visualize his mother
His
mother won
the
international championship
and
never owned an actual loincloth
The
poet is far humbler than his mother
This
statement will receive chortles
from
some of his friends
Acquisition
is
a game played by many people
in
the world
One
must own everything
they
can get their hands upon
The
crying of a newborn
signals
the parents
that
the child is ready to play
this
standard game
You'll
find complete rules
on
page one of your game guide
available
by sending this poet
ten
dollars via his PayPal account
Send
twenty dollars
and
he might even send it to you
but
as with all games there are
no
guarantees you'll actually
receive
the promised finish
of
the games themselves
If
you never receive a copy
of
the rules of these games
don't
fret
This
poet is merely playing
what
he learned when exploring the rules
of
the game Salesman
You
must work for some very shady bosses
and
co-workers
in
order to fully realize the complete rules
of
this game
These
are just some of the games
being
played in your neighborhood
There
are others
You
will have to discover them
for
yourselves
since
you haven't sent your twenty dollars
as
yet
