Black Poetry : GAME OVER

Go, fish​

Pass Go, Collect $200.00 ​

Get out of Jail free card​

King Me Please ​

You sank my battleship ​

Tag you're it​

Ring around the roses​

All the lingo of child's play
But no more games as of today
For when I became a woman I put childish things away
But I guess you didn't get the memo about the new way
You emerge yourself into circular game play
And wonder why you are still stuck in yesterday
Time to grow up and put that ish away​

Silly rabbit haven't you heard tricks are for kids
Time to stop hopscotching and step off the grid
Man up and get you marbles together
For in life there will be rain along with fair weather
I triple dog dare you to cross the line
And dust the crumbs of yesterday off your behind
And step up to the plate and get on the grind​

Since game is all you seem to know, I declare checkmate
Mark your calendar, for you're going to remember this date
This is the day that all games come to a conclusion
I am choosing to opt out of this dizzy optical illusion
I am walking away from this crazy wrestling match
Realizing that you and I are now a gross mismatch
So long my friend, This is the end, GAME OVER!!!​

asimplepoet,

Well...somebody is in trouble, I don't know whether to give thanks for that or what, but it is nice prose, which clicks. Will you explain more to me asimplepoet or is that permissible?

@Bro Clyde. As the year comes to a close there are some friends that I had to let go of because I realize that they and I are no longer on the same level. I wish them the best but I am choosing to opt out of the games they play. Does that help?

Yes it does, and that's it in a nutshell, so to speak, asimplepoet. And those ones will be hardpressed to carry on without you. I do feel bad for them and their lost.
