Mind Games

Marionettes, 2 puppets on a string

Some live daily

Like a puppet on a string

Just playing life’s game

Senryu

“Until you realize how easily it is for your mind to be manipulated, you remain the puppet of someone else’s game.”

Evita Ochel

NaPoWriMo 2018 Day 16

prompt for the day asks you to write a poem that prominently features the idea of play. It could be a poem about a sport or game, a poem about people who play (or are playing a game), or even a poem in the form of the rules for a sport or game that you’ve just made

Sorry!

Sorry! game

On a journey to reach Home
I Start out as number 2
But I get a second chance
That’s not good for you

Sorry!

Counting on the luck of the Draw
To move me forward on the Path
My colorful little Pawn
Procures the Card of wrath

Sorry!

It’s a frantic race to make it Home
You bump me and I bump you
But one of us will win in the end
Oh Wow! Look at the card I drew!

Sorry!
