PALL-ITICS

(A game of ice and fire...)
Imagine a pair of dice,
Rolled out
What do you see?

I see ice...

Eyes of friends obliged to watch each other's back,
Where energy and ambition are balanced.
Companions whose thirsts are matched,
And eyes that views from same angle.

I see fire...

An open attack,
Of friends trying to keep pace with one another,
The opposition theory,
A war of ambitions where none feels at ease with others.

(Clashes of will...)
Wrap this dice in ice and set it ablaze,
Strange is imminent.
Isn't this the way of the game?

Stranger it is,
That statesmen consider this game a weapon,
They act acts and create scenes of huge conflicts,
That shows more clearly,
A contest between patriotic villains and villainic patriots.
This game has led men to senseless battles,
Forgetting soon that on same side are we all.

Imagine a pair of dice,
Rolled out
What do you see?

I see ice,
I see fire,
You see politics,
I see pall-itics.
