Rocks-Papers-Scissors

The rock, paper and scissors game
at first glance may seem very tame,
but if you are the loser
and he's an abuser
your wrists may be set quite aflame.

An slightly startling take on a simple game. Interesting social comment. Out of the ordinary write, that's for sure. Good artistic invention! Wishing you luck in the contest. Regards, Robert.
