Notes About The Poem

Just a little writters BLOCK to pass the time. 

The Game

T he contentious people play prioritizing purposefully
H appily scribble FANTASTIC dribble
E easily influenced by the scoreboard

G enerating astounding ACCOMPLISHMENTS
A nother DAY in the life of the players
M onotonous tricks of the trade practiced everyday
E xtremely COMPETITIVE


NOT MY ORIGINAL QUOTE:  Don't hate the player, hate the game
