Monopoly - As In Life
Some
games are
just for fun.
Others make you
feel competitive.
Monopoly, for instance:
it takes a lot of your time.
I’m someone who hates wasting time.
Time is money; in Monopoly,
money’s not real. Still. . . . losing is time lost.
I played the game with aggressive siblings.
More about good luck than strategy,
it was something I came to hate.
Now when I’ve lost all chance at
just one “monopoly,”
I still have some say;
I simply take
myself out
of the
game.
