The Game. Write about a game, any game. Fiction or non-fiction, poetry or Prose.
The Video Game
I flick my fingersover the controls,
collecting badges, finding old scrolls.
Ready to fake-sleep as midnight tolls,
before digging in the dirt among the moles.
I stare at the screen, and it hurts my eyes.
I can't stop, when each new adventure brings a prize.
I must be ready for any suprise,
and if my parents catch me, I must be ready to hypnotise.
