O-X-O
In the center, I put down an O,
But intercept your turn,
For I cannot afford to
Have the X in an incorrect
Box. So to the top-right
Corner goes my X,
Once yours, now mine.
But look, it is my turn
Once more, so to the top-
Middle goes my O, beginning
A winning line. But, oh, I
Am tired and feel not like
Finishing this game. By
Default I win, for I have
More connecting O's while
You sulk with a single X.
