Poem : Round One


Round One


I wake up and it’s another day,
Doomed to another turn in this game,
Some roll the dice, some draw the cards,
Move the pieces or you won’t get far.

Climb up those ladders, watch out for snakes,
If you’re not careful you’ll be stuck in checkmate,
The neverending struggle, the eternal quest,
To overcome adversity and save the princess.

Place your bets in the game of roulette,
Watch as the ball revolves around the track,
Keep a straight face or get lost in transition,
To get past the game, you have to play the player.

Psychology, deception, the weapons of choice,
Guns and swords make little more than noise,
But a chainsaw will take you places,
In the face of danger, remember to strafe!

Through the multiple paths and mazes abound,
Whether by perseverance or glitches that are found,
The story will always end with
Game over, insert coin?

Khairil Abdul Ghani (June 08)
