Scrabble

Scrambled, jumbled
           like the souls
           of many I know

Pondered, questioned
          until every possibility
          is known to you

Placed, maneuvered
        so perfectly in your
        achieving eyes

Scored, tallied
        knowing you'll win this
        round and hereafter

Taken, cleared
       wiped from memory and
       now just one more

Boxed, stored
       away from your eyes
       and I am gone

                Yes, I've been Scrabbled
                     and given the chance
                     I'd take you on again.
