played this neat real game
built hotels along the main
friends dropped in to visit me
they hated me in the end
I collected tax from them.

One thing you can say about this game is you don't get board...sometimes you get rent though. Thanks for monopolising my time

Well, I wouldn't like it if you taxed me either Ecrivan. Fun idea for a tanka.

Martin- Monopoly, I used to love playing that game when I was a kid with my family.  Nice writing.  

By the way, if they hated you for playing the game well, then the are just sore losers.lol

Dave,

But of course we used to find out who were the sore losers then, and learned about each others characters
