Fair Game Poems - Poems about Fair Game

POEMS ABOUT POOL SHARKS Fair Game by Michael R. Burch At the Tennessee State Fair, the largest stuffed animals hang tilt-a-whirl over the pool tables with mocking button eyes, knowing the playing field is unlevel, that the rails slant, ever so slightly, north or south, so that gravity is always on their side, conspiring to save their plush, extravagant hides year after year. “Come hither, come...

So many times you’ve shuffled the deck, I don’t know which card will turn up next So many times you’ve poisoned the well, I don’t what lies you’re going to tell It’s not fair -- Your keepin’ us all in the dark It’s not fair -- The snuffing out of every spark So many times you’ve dumped your oil -- A truly dead sea...

I want it like a fair game Don't take roles for just fame There's more than just a great name Your excuses are just so lame I want you to play fair game. A fair game! Huge commendation enriches deception Oh you love to trick two eyes blindfolded But I am not impressed how you move You break rules You're a wicked Huge commendation enriches deception Oh don't you lie My two...

If it's a fair game all can win. If it's a fair game the running and sweating is equal and the results can be timed.

Fair Game I am The All-Mighty, The Ever-Exalted, The Supremely-Eternal. To me belongeth the universes, the heavens, the earths, what dwells in-between. Jinn and Men, I have created, for a sole purpose; duties internal and external. Worship, glorify, bow, and prostrate before me, but no other; ever-more-pristine. Revere the sacred books, honor the apostles; believe in the seen and the...

Mischievous Puck, your flower has once again struck where it should not. Beguiling the eyes and the minds to love those that they should not. Oh! Wicked Robin, how dare you convolute something so precious into a farce. Making my love into your game with players to take me down. My dear Goodfellow, i shall not play this game of...

Fair game she is not By another she's been caught Yet her smile sets me free For a never ending fantasy When by chance we would meet With a gentle kiss she would greet Then with an easy tug Comes a deep and strong hug Then on more she would insist No way I could resist Her blond hair blowing in the breeze Those beautiful eyes...
