Boys Game Poem by Phillip Dix

Boys Game

Rating: 4.0


Tear my heart out,
I'm dead anyway.

No room in the social lounge again,
on the dark and cold streets,
is where you live,
and die.

Oh my friend,
if I still have one,
you as me, we are alone.
This world forgot about us,
quite long.

How can I survive?
Too much hate surrounds me,
sadness too,
but love,
love does not.

Flip the coin,
who goes first,
five chances
squeez that trigger.

This is a game that boys play constantly, whether they know it or not. The chances they take speak of worthless lives as they view them. All attributed to limited vision. A great piece of writing reveals it. Worth reading. GW62
