You’re only as good as your last move <br />But I don’t play chess <br />I never learned <br />Things fall into place naturally <br />So I go with the flow <br />Consistently moving to the flow <br />Another pawn lost. Your move <br />Protect the queen no matter the cost <br />Watch that knight <br />Know your strategy <br />Before making your next move <br />Oh. I know this game <br />The trouble is I play by a different rule <br />I suppose it’s why I get into situations <br />I can’t handle. Your move or <br />Do you prefer trivial matters. <br />That’s my pursuit. <br />Seriously. Quit switching games <br />Well. That’s the plan <br />Keep up. Try to guess the next game. <br />Guess the right… word <br />Un-scrabble the right clue <br />The way you move boggles the mind <br />Come on try and stop me <br />Does the changing rules leave you perplexed <br />Don’t worry your turns coming around <br />Pick a tile <br />By then another game will have ended <br />What? You can’t play mahjong (neither can I) <br />Oh well. Stick around for hopscotch <br />Bored with the board <br />Let’s try an outdoor favorite <br />Tag you’re it. Catch me if you can. <br />Ring around the rosy. <br />No one said “Simon says”. <br />Now’s the time for hide n seek <br />You start. I’ll find… another game <br />To flip the script; change the pace <br />It’ll make things more interesting <br />As far as rules go, anything goes <br />In this ever changing game of life. <br />Sorry perhaps it’s operation I’m playing <br />Come one come all to the schoolyard <br />We’ve games aplenty <br />Now. Lets play. It’s your move.<br /><br />derrick foster<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/as-far-as-rules-go/
