The Nature Poem by Chris Leermakers

Winning Isn't Everything
In Order To Score
It Takes A Lot
Then A Whole Lot More
Psyche Out The Foe
Think, Observe & Listen
Now, You Will Know
Figure Out
All You Can
You Must Put On The Show
Have You Learned Enough
To Take A Giant Puff
On The Real One
True One
The One With All The Stuff?

You've Run Out Of Time
The Time To Act Is Now
Quench The Thirst,
With Some Lime
To Repeatedly Show Us How
You Are To Play The Real Game
Amongst Many,
Some Shining Their Dimes
But Not The Same
Some Just Enjoy The Fame
Pasted With Their Name
Oh My, You Lost

Well, Isn't That The Cost?
You Think
You've Had Enough?
Don't Throw It All Away
Just Going Through A Phase
On A Better,
Clearer Day
You'll Work Out The Maze
The Labyrinth Within
I'm Still Thinking I Can Win
When The Time Is Right
You'll Scream And Dance
Right In

I'm In The Middle Now
The Balancing Of The Set
Look And Watch Me How
I Terminate The Bet
The Terminator's Back
Yes, I'm Back & Just Look Out
For The Nature
Of The Truth, Of My Hack
Then The Nature Of The Spout
I Never Lose,
Either Win Or Learn
Do You See?
You Paid The Cost
Of Playing To Win
You Won, But Also Lost
But Now You Know;
You're In….....
