Nor has there ever been a hog
As beautiful as my dog
Nor e'er a frog upon its log
Not even its youngest pollywog

III
We play games
For variety, virtual community
Go everywhere,...

A head for fifty bags of cementA head goes for a laborer’s pad,
After losses to friends at card;
Whatever reaches him he’ll guard,
As life remains unbearably hard.

Thinking in Cliches Is Itself a ClicheWhat the hell you sayin’

Out, back to pavilionForget your frustration, your anger,
Beware just of our index finger,
We are the game’s umpire
Ours the last call so dire,
We won’t let suspense long to linger,
Out, back to pavilion—
Our learned opinion!

but I think you mean a peak
polyphonic engagement
or maybe
a polyvagal peak...

ShoelaceEvery day Sparkles
Plays with a shoelace
It could be short or long
I giggle it she catches it
Or pulls it on the floor
She would jump on it
Sometimes she plays
