Board with Games

unemployed
un-enjoyed
masterminds’
master plan’s
making some noise
(no one gets destroyed,
well, maybe some toys)
who like to play games
seeking their fame
they all smell the same
go by the same names
“cocksucker, ass-kisser”
a “miss” or a “mister”
a friend or her sister
your wife’s getting blisters
from counting your money
I know you’re no dummy
don’t look at me funny
who’s running what?
is it “some what?” or “so what?”
it’s no different the loss
if you’re not the boss
expenses keep growing
without you even knowing
caught it all in a glimpse
haven’t mentioned it since
what a messenger am I
if I don’t, even, try
delivering sensitive material
to people so fragile?
but back to my plan
oh yes, back again
I need to move on
to see a new dawn
so with closure in place
I’ve cleaned out my space
to bring something new
not much left to do
