I'll take the throne

I'll take the throne
-Ismat Ahmed Shaikh

The playing cards have jack and ace.
Ranking gives 'moves' even to the pieces of chess.

The games of this century is quite wierd to play.
To ensure safety of king(chess), every one becomes a prey.

I know-Life is not a game.

But it is-quite harsh.
'Right to live' is still very sparse

One has to earn money or starve to death
Toil and toil even till the very last breath.

It makes me think, think so hard
Let's play a game,
A game-better than any game of cards

I'll compete with many veteran players.
For the reward-power, money and fame.

Though I know it is a never ending game.

I have made up my mind, 
You too get it ingrained.

I will make my move and the reward will change.

Power, money and fame- 
will lose its charm.
Success will get redefined
And a new throne will be made.

I'll take this unique throne-
The one which is yet to be claimed.
