Pastiche Winning Entry

Scattered beads and
Shattered dreams.
Things are never what they seem.

Hissing znakes and
Whacking games.
What’s right is right and
What’s wrong is right.

You can thump, whack, toss
Or thump, toss, whack.
While one may end,
the other begins.

Frenzied fun or
Subdued sales.
One can profit either way.

Scattered beads and
Shattered dreams.
Things are never what they seem.
