Pick Up the Sticks
When two gamers connect over the web, love can take root.
She sat down at the sticks.
Over the connection he looked at her severely.
She rolled with the picks.
He scrolled through the titles clearly.
With microphone near her mouth
She spoke codes and cheats.
He fought her north to south
All over the screen they stamped digital cleats.
These lovers found gaming
Through the channels of the ‘Net.
In the process of aiming
They each guided their avatars without a sweat.
From shooting, to collecting, to running plays
The two lovers found a bond.
For a couple to be up in their days,
They linked up across the pond.
The Internet allowed for them to meet.
They enjoyed the battle, either win or defeat.

Smartystan
The gleam from the streets of Smartystan sparked the brain. Platinum and diamond streets always seemed to drive thought in the city-state-nation. It meant that vehicles could rove over the avenues and boulevards with ease and become not a distraction but a reminder of how clean and well-kept even the alleyways and back lots had been.
