Games We'Ve Played And Play, Today. Poem by Michael Gale
Games We'Ve Played And Play, Today.
Scrabble, Upwards, Crossword puzzles...
Board games.
Now we have video games...
Now, board games are bored games.
Checkers are easier than chess...
I could really, never figure out the Rooks and queens, and the
knightly mess.
I could never figure out history or even math....
I'd rather be off showering, or taking a bath.
My favorite board, is a computer's key-board...
My favorite book, is the book of the Lord.
Records are now little silvery ones...
Video games make it fun to shoot off guns.
It is fun to catch fishs...
It is funner to eat foodly dishes.
Movies on DVD's....
What is next?
Besides a computer's or cell phone's quickest of text.

The best games Are those without names. Played while you stand in line Waiting, waiting, waiting; not fun. So you play one of the games in Berne's Classic summarizing these things. Titled; 'Games People Play' Which permits one to while away the day And see others as they are While you stand afar. Forgetting that life is all about Those who stand and maybe shout For recognition and some service. While they put up with the malice Of one who is judge, jury and lord To all those who stand before the board Waiting for dispensation from above. What ever became of brotherly love? That's the game we all play. s
