A Bad Video Game

Thomas W Case



I feel like I'm
stuck in a bad
video game,
like pong, from
the first Atari.
And I'm that little  
dot that gets ponged
back and forth.
Life is like a
Scene from Dante's
inferno...
Abandon all hope...
I need mountains,
The ocean,
And the breath of
6-week-old puppies.

    Well of course video games and Dante in the same poem, well deserved a round of applause for sure, not to forget the puppy. Beautiful, you always bring the reader back down to earth Sir. 🌹

      Some of those old games were built to last, unless of course they blew a fuse.
