Monopoly Of Life
Staying focused on the past
Means never passing GO
2 hundred dollars won't last
If one proceeds that slow
The money only flows
After we throw the dice
Sometimes it'll grow
Other times it'll slice
Like mice on wheels
To heal, we gotta move
At times, the journey's uphill
Yet we still must groove
It behooves of us all
To keep moving & grooving
Gotta stand up tall
Or fall to expiring
Means never passing GO
2 hundred dollars won't last
If one proceeds that slow
The money only flows
After we throw the dice
Sometimes it'll grow
Other times it'll slice
Like mice on wheels
To heal, we gotta move
At times, the journey's uphill
Yet we still must groove
It behooves of us all
To keep moving & grooving
Gotta stand up tall
Or fall to expiring

Nice treatment of iconography...
TIs crazy to see the same patterns repeating...
One has to wonder how long we can repeat the same insanity...
The foundation of the Monopoly board crumbles
as the players continue to scramble in machinations of madness...
I am an optimist and believe in the best
or finding the best in all outcomes...
I actually think about this quite often...
Oh yeah...
Like the place of art on the Monopoly board...
I think about the value of art...
On different levels...
Thought provoking poem...

Liked that third stanza because it's so true. We gotta keep moving to heal.
