the
pyrrhic
play
to be a Big Player is to play
a very complicated game
selflessly-
selfishly
to know how the game works
know when to relinquish my view
to obtain the compromise
to get what I want (as
pursuit of the Greater Good) the Ends
… chorus?
however
I want to pursue my own self-
lessness I want to sit and gain
nothing
but then I become fatally exposed
when I try to put some relief
found inside myself
‘out there’ persuasive in the world
and then it becomes part of the Game
which I- do-not-want-to-but-have-obliged-myself
to Play
… chorus?
my activity should come out of clear naïve response –
a totally un-beguiled emptiness –
not my success of finding the point
not my vindication not my self
(because then when I am necessarily ignored
I become a living death)
… chorus: don’t
don’t ever Play the Game just breathe
breathe and step
one square at a time
while the rest of the Game
plays itself
