En no Atari

but I’m not great at games

what I mean to say is

that you’re far superior

warrior/sword fighter

reading me as if I’m a

cardboard TV with towel tubes

scrolling a crayon-scribbled picture

of rocks/stacks of papers amongst a

stick figure running with scissors

but you’re always about the upgrade

new CPU

fresh/pressure sensitive

vibration controller

all wireless

an open world forum 

with every cheat code possible

you will miss mashing

my buttons/squashing them

into bits of plastic/metal

anything to win

top score
