A Game of Life

A Game of Life

Life, for anyone, is very complex game
The way you play it, give it the name

While running a marathon
Don’t take others head on 
If it’s race of dash, however
It’s over in a flash from nowhere

It it’s a boxing bout
You look for rival’s rout
If it a game of chess
You only direct the pieces

Life as a boxing match or a game of chest- interesting metaphors.
