 THE TRAVELING LIFELONG BUSH POET

THE GAMES SOME LOVE TO PLAY


( This poem forgive me is about some of the
  parasites Ive met in life )

All of my life I've been the same
And I'll be so till my dying day~
But one thing I'll never be
Is among the games that people play~
I look sometimes and cannot believe
That some would go to such extreme~
To have the time and state of mind
To try and destroy another's dream~
My mind simply does not go there
And for me it's so hard to understand~
But I guess that's where some are these days
With their mind games ever grand~
But mostly fooling no body but themselves
They carry upon their way~
And I sit back often and smile I do
That their lives have gone so far astray~
I remember my father telling me once
What can you say to souls like this~
I asked him well what can you say to them
He replied nothing son they live in imaginary bliss~
But at least good and thinking souls
Can see the very likes of them~
Long before they have their wicked way
And then to walk away as always once ag'en~
They always often pick on those
That are already so inlove ever so~
As it seems to be a challenge to them
To simply hang in there and give the game a go~
Parasites of life I feel they are
The wasps of of society in life~
But that's the way these lost souls are
They feed upon others strife~
We've all met them in our travels
We'll meet them up the way~
But one thing we must never do
Is be the victim of the games they play ~
But if you know about them being there
And protect all you love in life as you go-
They are fooling no body but themselves
As then all about them you are aware and know -
