Cheating At the Game of Life

Folder: 
Thoughts on Life

You cannot cheat

Or trick other players

At the game of life.



In order to truly win,

You must live righteously

And compete fairly.



There are no shortcuts

In reality and sometimes

You get pushed back to start.



Sometimes you land on

Mistakes and missed chances

But you can redeem yourself.



All you can do is roll

The dice again and wait for

Destiny to reveal his hand.



This time you may be lucky

Or you might lose a turn

And linger ‘til the next.



But at the end of the game,

It helps to hear the banker

Say, you played a good game.
