Song lyrics and rhyming poetry is my favorite type of writing style. It is almost completely what I write in, possibly because of the inspiration and fulfillment I get out of listening to music.

So it was about 1:30 in the morning and I had Johnny Cash's "I Walk the Line" playing in my head. I liked the rhyming structure he had, and I began to write my own song that fit his structure and music. In about ten minutes, I ended with this piece.

The "game" is whatever you want it to be (or not to be). It's what puts you down and sits on top of you, and what you hate but can't live without. It is your addiction, faith, love, or pleasure. It eases you, but not without a cost. This piece is about people who bring you into a world where you are all you know is all that exists, and even when you grow up into the world that's really so much bigger than you can believe, you are still only left with what you have. The "game," could be anything from a drug addiction to the simplistic reality of your own fate.
