Lament for a Gamer
Depression is chemicalor
so they say
Tablets to be taken
twice a day
Like Pacman chasing
little blue pills
Or Mario bouncing
round those hills
I wish I had just
1 more try
Another slice of
virtual pieI dodge
and dance
with invaders from space
While trying to win
The human ‘race.’
But in this life
you get one game
when you die
won’t come back again
So I’ll storm that
castle until I’m done
I get the message
You’ve finally won.
