for Sims 2 Nintendo DS
by Sadee Bee
I pick up nuclear fuel rods with my bare
hands to power the commodities.
Check in guests that seem as lost as I
am. This strange,
hazy desert oozes oddities
from its corners. But I keep building.
Feeding gourds to the ancient mummy
& hoping the aliens don’t return.
This is a game
But also life.
Accepting danger at face value
while attempting to achieve the next goal.
Spreading joy amongst disaster.
Fighting for something when nothing
makes sense & hoping nuclear
fuel waste doesn’t kill me.
