Hi ${token1}, hope you enjoy
The Wrong Game
The Great Conspiracy
It's time to stop the madness
They've got the game all wrong
The playing field was perfect
'til the players came along
They've changed the game's objective
They rearranged the goal
And all eyes were mis-focused
while the stealers gained control
The trickery's amazing
They've made it all a maze
They practice sleight of mind and hand
to misdirect your gaze
The rulebook's been corrupted
Deception rules the day
And none question the question
does it have to be this way?
But we who see things clearly
to share are honor bound
To educate the players
of the truth that we've now found
So, move toward the sidelines
A different view exists
You'll start to see the truth of it
then please consider this:
Who's setting up the rules, my friend?
Who benefits the most?
Whose interests are served best
as mad we run pillar to post?
The game's the deception
The ball's not theirs to steal
You've bought into a game
that in the end's not even real
So wrest back all your power
Don't play the world's wrong game
You'll see beyond the folly
and your freedom you'll reclaim!
COMMENTARY:
How do they trick thee? Let me count the ways:
Medical practices that maim. Little colored pills with funny names that cause more illness than they supposedly cure. Religious systems that misdirect awareness of ones true divinity. News reports that omit truth. Justice systems that support anything but. Even silly little polls that ask time-wasting, inane questions. All perpetuate an overriding concept of reality that has you believe you have no power and thus keeps you bound in an endless and futile game of chase.
You've abdicated your throne. So now you seek permission to own from those who steal. You look for guidance from those who misdirect. You seek validation from those with the least sense of personal worth. You accept cures and concepts of health from the sickest among us. You take as objective news information from those with the most subjective of intentions. And you answer meaningless questions posed by those with no meaningful answers. You've bought into a game in which the underlying belief is that the power (the ball) is in someone else's hands and therefore is to be chased by you. But the truth is, it's not even a game! No one took your ball. No one can take your ball. It's always been yours and is yours even now. The game doesn't even exist. Step back far enough and you'll see it for the folly it is. Don't ask for permission. The power to own, the power to lead, the power to cure yourself, and the ability to know truth are all already within you and always have been. The REAL game is simply remembering this.
P.S. Please help me set up my National Tour. If you are in certain key cities

Subscriber Feedback:
David R., VA (from a brief survey. Thanks David!)
I like the rhyme and the meter, the visual and experiential aspects, the way the poems unfold and conclude. They're complete, worthy of my wall. I also like their consistency. That alone is impressive. I was thinking about words the other day and how, despite how much I love them, they often fail me, or I fail them. Sometimes, no metaphor will do. Sometimes, the experience of a thing is so personal that talking about it diminishes both the experience and the thing. Typicially, the impact of your messages is personal, because you are writing from a personal space. I have no doubt that if you did a run of several thousand [The collection of 365 Life Rhymes availalbe at LifeRhymes.com] , you'd sell them easily. Because you have a loyal reader base and the messages are personal, and people like getting their hands on things, and inspiration makes a great gift, I imagine you'd sell multiple copies to many of your readers, who will pass it on as a gift. I think the book would boost the website.
