Life's A Game .

Someone told me, "Life's a game. "
Some truth there, it does have an aim !
Everyone's out on a crazy conquest of fame.
In the process, ready to injure and maim.



"Are we all its player then ?
Out in this dark world of men "
'Players', call them if you wish.
They're just longing for their share of the dish .
There's no place for peace, birds or fish.



Is it a new-era creation ?
Is man himself the mason ?
It is widespread, across every nation
Is every learning, a new station ?


Questions,but answers none, thoughts seem vague
It's just getting worse, spreading like the plaque
Someone, long time ago, did point out vice.
Seven are deadly they say, that can't be nice.
For your deeds, time will come to pay the price.
It will grow from something as harmless as white lies.



"It's just a game, right ?
Like the ones played on family night "
I heard him laugh, it was spine chilling.
He said,"It's a milder way, to put the killing. "



"Seven deadly sins- Obstacles are they ? "
"Milestones is apt" , I heard him say.
It may be a game, but there's no room for fairplay
You're closer to the end, each passing day .



There's so much you'd want,have to achieve
It's a trap, no one can you even believe.
Face loss, you cannot just grieve.
No time for a sigh of relief to heave
We'll all be gone someday, we'll all leave.
The good from the bad none can sieve.



For power, an unquenched thirst.
Desire to defeat, to be ever first.
"And this is not even the worst"
He laughed. Avarice. He cursed.



Faults, flaws in others, we cannot tolerate.
It's all about you and how you're great.
All else can cease to exist, not hate.
There's wrath & pride , only no fate.
I could sense him there, there to lay the bait.



No work. Just here to sit and eat
Not content without killing and meat.
Once you've stepped in, there's no retreat.
Just you, your sloth & gluttony.No one to greet.
No one's yours, not even your own feet.
No one's here to help, for you vacate their seat.
He was there . " Feel the Hell's Heat "


Each possess ,within, a burning desire
To have all, to just reach higher.
That's not enough. Others be engulfed by fire.
Each is wrong, everyone's a liar.
Envy. Other side is green, your path is drier.


They write it off as simply human need.
As if needed by all our creed.
To reason, to sense, to logic,pay no heed.
Lust - " The desire to just do the deed "



Surely, over all this we can be
A right path is there, just look and see.
Don't look at the enemy, the neighbour, start with me .
Feel from within, not momentary glee.



It is a game, for sure.
All the wrong, just there to lure.
All our desires, our demand for more.
You may weep until your eyes are sore.
Can't we all agree that a four's a four ?
Play. Follow the rules. Is that the cure ?



He heard every word. He did.
He just laughed from where he hid.
" Come forth, forgo the lid . "
Closer & closer, I felt he slid.



I could feel the sinister darkness all around.
Right from the top of heaven to deep underground.
It was eerily still, not even a sound .
I felt evil . I felt it just abound .
I wished to smile, but I just frowned.
All the terror was beginning to hound.
Breathless.Crazily, my heart did pound.




A blinding flash of light , left me in a trace
Wind blew , at a tremendous pace.
I was left gaping at empty space .
For that voice , it had no face.



" Life's a Game and there are no rules ."
"Believers of justice & fairplay are fools."
"Predict the course, the end , one can never."
"Heaven & Hell . God & the Devil . - Quest Forever. "
