IMITATION OR REALITY

I rush around each day,
though I'm not sure just why!
I imitate my fav'rite play:
I'm PacMan on the fly!

I adore his frantic pace--
I emulate it well!
But sometimes I call my race
the Upper Deck of Hell!!

It's really not so bad, I swear!
It just goes by so fast!
But I still haven't figured where
I will end up at last!!

So PacMan is my tour guide;
reality in my days!
Let the game run you, I chide:
you'll wind up in MY maze!!
