Fantasize about a game
where feudal lords ruled the land
when there were castles
and mobility was banned
Wizards had power
pleas were made for change
this game is fun
the world can be rearranged
In the wave of a wand
the switch was instant
feudal lords became peasants
life was consistent
With the change
free will disappeared
no freedom of expression
really quite weird
An unexpected side effect of
of the wizard’s idea of perfection
looking into the mirror
an interesting perception
One lad immune
from the spell
took the wizard to task
stating this would not end well
Free will for the people
will cause an internal change
through love and kindness
the world will rearrange
Power stated the wizard
is ruling those unable to think
mindlessly following masses
causes the population to shrink
The lad pulled out a sword
then a great battle
loud thunder and powerful lightening
shaking this Tower of Babel
The battle ended as the wizard
was scorched and faded into the wind
free will restored
but this was not the end
The peasants changed
from the inside
love expanded within the world
the feudal lords began to hide
There was peace for a time
then the darkness began to fall
the cycle continues
a lesson for us all
Putting back the pieces
of this fantasy game
looking forward to a time
when peace will reign

A fascinating game
Thank you. I have often thought it would be fun to invent a game. I admire those with the computer skills to make those games. Thanks for reading. Have a wonderful day!
You’re welcome. Yes these are so many new games these days

Thank you. I think that inventing a game would be fun. Thanks for reading. Have a wonderful day!
Being surrounded by children at school, it reminds me of how easy it was at that age to invent a game out of nothing. It didn’t even have to make sense. Why do we lose that imaginative wonder?
It was easy to invent a game when children played outside and entertained themselves. I believe that technology makes it easier to not use the imagination. So many children play computer games early in their lives and never use their imagination. We as a society have truly lost something. So sad. Thanks for reading. Have a wonderful day!
Let’s not say ‘never’ 🙂
We run the risk of sounding like our parents and wishing for the good old days.
Whatever the kids are going through now, they are going through together and should stand them well enough for the future.
So true. Poor choice of words on my part. I agree they are going through together and will stand well enough in the future. Thanks for reading. Have a wonderful day!
