DRAFT PICK

GAME: who's to blame
time rolls on just the same
freeze frame my feelings again

Life's too tame...tonight's game

a blythe spirit may entertain or
roar over the war of this crowd
--that ƒ(r)!%n' TV's far too loud!

you snore, remember your war
smell of snacks, attacks, score
watching others getting sacked
(a little ambiguity from the sack)
in war paint and favorite colors
(little snide asides while I abide)
remember I'm under the covers
(should I tell others we're lovers)

¿get paddles? shout, "CLEAR!"
what I say, what you hear
hovers in one ear
(touchdown here)...out the other
yes, I still love you, foolish lover

GET YOUR OWN BEER!
