Here is a brief poem from 1794 that is how Motörhead might have written the classic song Ace of Spades if they'd been around to play 18th century metal---
That life's a game, divines confess/This says at cards, and that at chess/But if our views be centered here/'Tis all a losing game, I fear."
This poem was written by Nathaniel Cotton. Mr. Cotton is the person you see in the picture.
The good news is that if freedom is just another word for nothing left to lose, then why not consider everyday ways to resist our death culture of money & violence.
Even if life is a losing game, there are still plenty of hopeful, fun and interesting things along the way. We can resist and do good with the time we have.
