In This Game Of Love, We Play Poem by RIC BASTASA

in this game of love
it is all a matter of volition

you are invited to this party
called love
and there is never a compulsion

if you like it then be it
if you don't then back out

in this game of love
it is never a compulsion

we are here to drink and be merry
and never to be sad

we keep this love going
and if you do not want to be in it

then go home find love somewhere else
hunger and thirst are theirs

but here, this is the game of love
that we all like to play

and just be ready, no one is true
no one is sincere, we just play....
