monopoly pieces fly across the room
i wonder,
how often
does a board game end in tragedy?
is it a predetermined malady
or
does it come back to my family?
get rich
or
die trying.
just as serious as fiction;
reality.
it's impossible to win while playing clean
it's no wonder why
so many people cheat.

Prompt: Write a poem about a board game and make it inverse.

I was going through the stories I wrote way before Vocal and found a series I’d penned on the American movie industry. I covered the economics of making and distributing movies, the ways the movie industry responds to modern challenges such as MeToo movement and the streaming technologies, and other topics, including some movie reviews.
