Tic-Tac-Toe

Keeping busy 
Tic-Tac-Toe
Checking my lists
Tic-Tac-Toe

Cooking and cleaning 
Tic-Tac-Toe
Trips to the lake
Tic-Tac-Toe

Let's take a walk
Tic-Tac-Toe
Rummaging and fumbling 
Tic-Tac-Toe

Just keeping busy
Tic-Tac-Toe
Never still. Never rest
Tic-Tac-Toe

Time always heals Mother said
Tic-Tac-Toe
Memories Never Fade
Tic-Tac-Toe

Tic Tac Toe

 *This poem will make more sense to Americans
who watched t.v. in the 1970’s

TIC TAC TOE

the board real tidy. today Tiger would hold
together the family photo. how old the queuing.
surely the Brady six hated tic tac toe -
the anniversary cake blows

the squares, it’s centerfold - Borgnine, Lynde
and Rivers. family full of puzzling fun,
riveting answers. Alice

Tic-Tac-Toe-

TIC
Competitive repetitive compulsive movement sound
Nervously unknown to me I rebound
TACK
Like a ship I sail I change my course the boat's head through the wind
TOE
A digit of the foot just three phalanx bones honed
Gridded nine square I am
A seeker alternating turn complete row
Is it jest or just a game, games
Diagonal
Noughts and crosses
Diagonal horizontal
Lethargic I take the

Tic Tac Toe Tornado

I’m ready for
Tic Tac Toe
Cause I got
my own rhymes to show
Watch me shine
My X’s are always in a row
Can you feel the room react
as it feels my glow
The Tickity Tac Tac
Clackity Clack Clack
Ricky Rhyme Time Show

My measures 
don’t need tethers
I’m the man
for any kinda weather
High or low pressure 
I’m a national treasure 
No cold front

Tic-Tac-Toe

TIC-TAC-toe, TIC-TAC-toe,
And we are at war with ourselves.
We are like little, scary dwarfs
We sit, all the best in ourselves is destroyed.

TIC-TAC-toe, TIC-TAC-toe,
And they draw crosses on our backs.
Our sins are sometimes so great,
That we are walking a mile atonement.

TIC-TAC-toe, TIC-TAC-toe
We shed blood reluctantly.
We are innocent of being traitors
And we perish, flying into the abyss.

TIC-TAC-toe, TIC-TAC-toe

Lover's Tic Tac Toe

The game of love is not unique
We can play it many ways
So why not try some tongue and cheek
To set a love ablaze

I’ll start and give a big ole’ hug
Represented by an O
And place it center where it’s snug
In Lover’s Tic Tac Toe

You answer with a tender kiss
In the left-hand corner
Your luscious X will taste

TIC TAC TOE

I DON’T PLAY TIC TAC TOE ANYMORE
I’M JUST INTO THE EXE’S YOU SCORE
I ONCE WAS A SQUARE
FULL OF CIRCLES IN MY HAIR
BUT NOW I COMPARE 
AND DRAW A LINE
THROUGH EVERY EXE‘S OF MINE
SO ARE YOU READY TO CROSS THE LINE

I’M WORTH THE RIGHT PRICE
SOON THERE BE RICE
THREE FOR THREE CROSS WITH ME
I’M STILL

Tic Tac Toe?

A hankerin’
an unscratched itch 
which one doesn’t wish to scratch for one
a need for heat and warmth
a turnstile dreamer ushers night to morn.

A what the hell
why not devil may care
for who else does?
The siren calls Ulysses to her gate.

Flower scents surmount
the desert dryness of aging heroines.
Lotharios play grinding tic tac and toes
searching for the golden
