"The Game"


          

Good - evil - polarizing people
Light em up, shoot em down, waste em all
Get the bad guys, hit em til they fall
Ready for revenge - It's balls out war
On a kill mission to seek and destroy
Conquer and divide - separate the men from the boys
Mortality is finality
Blast fast - React first - No questions asked
Morality is not reality
Kill count - kill shot - body count way up
Consequences are sentimental
Black or white thinking - carnal instinct
A time for killing - a time for pain
Time's almost up - gotta win this game
Out of lives - Now I die - Load of shame

A poignant reminder of the times we are living in; however if we choose to wake up to the reality maybe we can be free from the game that is being played.

“Writing is a potion of devotion, magical, mysterious and mighty” Desta

"Love is like the sea. It's a moving thing, but still and all, it takes its shape from the shore it meets, and it's different with every shore. ”
Zora Neale Hurston

I kinda agree with Huey ... This sounds like an abstract scenario from Trayvon Martin's story ... while at the same time, I could see this played out like HALO 4 (video game).

Thanks all for your input. My thoughts on Trayvon:

A moment in time
Two lives intertwined
The boy was near - the man felt fear
He was too close for comfort
Was it wrong place for colored?
Emboldened by his weapon,
the man starts tempting

The boy accepts the man's invite
But this is not to be a fair fight
The man stalks the boy as he walks
The man challenges the boy to strike
The boy, so strong, who doesn't "belong"
The man, so scared, who wants to be feared
The boy, so young, now faces a gun

A man and a boy, a moment in time
That day in the rain they say justice reigned
The man denies any wrongdoing
No culpability in shooting

Who is right to start a fight?
Who has the right to end a life?
Who is innocent? Who is ignorant?
Round and round it goes, no end in sight

Bigotry, equality
Age, race, and gender
Gun control defenders
Everybody has something to say
About the man and the boy that day

A moment in time that defines
the attitude of multitudes
Confirmation that a nation
still battles an internal war
The warriors yet to mourn

The rain keeps falling
People keep walking
Maybe the rain brings change
Or the man stays the same
If anyone's guess with chance encounters
