When does boredom set in
and that “niche heart ache” begin?
Who are the best players the women...?
Or the men in their hot cauldron...?
Why are we pared into these couples?
Where nails claw the blackboard at school...?
Days conjoint; end in quarrels....?
These days everyone’s a freak or ghoul...?
The best players don't play by the rules
they aren't Sunday school girls
or boys playing in cesspools
furtively probing like squirrels...?
No...?
The best players are the make do types
who don't mind ladders in their tights
or the school yard bully who cowers
at the tethers...? playing boy soldiers...?
No...?
Surely the best players are lier’s
cheats and thieves,
who cheat themselves, till no one leaves...
