Stop the Attention

walk here she goes again
walking back and forth--
trying to be on each side;
one is the idol group
the other--to her eyes are the bees nest

but, one has to be chosen
or one is better than the other.
the idol group is just her fantasy:
she feels like an entertainer
or at least the praised and loved one

the bees n' nest roam around
still hanging and making honey in the clan
but it's so different, so vague--
or so digested and full
solo but never in dark hole

after she is done with her fantasy,
back the roaming bees, she acts painless--
no nerves, no feels, no moods

she just kept jumping back and forth,
trying to be on each side at time
one is the idol group for her escape of truth
the other--filled with roaming bees, still making honey,
has worn out from the jumping she has made.

The Game Poem


The Game
By Kim

Roll the dice, flip the card
Take a turn, look serious
Back away, take the punishment
Cheating is more like it, but there’s always a bad outcome
Be sneaky and you win.
You play the game, you get in the game.
There’s only one goal, you want to win.

Winner? You feel so accomplished.
When you win, you smile and move-on
Or, like a hawk, you get more aggressive.
Greedy it is, aggressive you are, the more you want to win.
Why so aggressive and serious when it’s just a game?

Roll the dice again, flip it again
Take another turn, look stern as a stone
Back away or step a head
So, why take more risks and be more serious?
Can it be more glorious?
Play the appeasement game
Play the sneaky like a snake game
One mind, one goal, one set—to win.
Or, is it a sin?

Have the attitude, give the attitude
And pass it on
Play the joke like a joker
Win the game like a Queen or King
Or, simply be the rest of the numbers.
One game, one play, one result.
You play the game again like it’s a practice.
You have a goal like a game.
