Life's a game to me,
I confess.
Nothing compares
to the feeling I get
watching my pawns
jump to my
defense.
Where they see
the problem
I see the consequence.
I like to watch them
dance
to the tune of my
supposed innocence.
Weave between them
like the spider
weaves her web.
I play them all
like they're my
puppets,
watch them waltz,
watch them turn,
watch them fall,
watch me rise.
I've got them
exactly where
I want them.
And if I play
the game right,
they will be
the cause of their
own downfall.
