Truth Games

How are you?
How have you been?
I often wonder what
would happen if
we started just
telling the truth--
just a little bit.
Oh, a little mad around the edges,
how about you?
Me? Frantic and desperate
by turns. But did you
catch the game
the other day?
Game? I am fighting for my life—
do you really think
I have time
for any
games?
