An Ode To LoL: A contest entry in written verse

 * After a long long working day
 * of doing the things that earn my pay.
 * I get home and start my comp
 * to get ready for a quick romp
 * Of the one game I wish to play


 * A snore, a chore, a Book, or din
 * can all wait for that first win
 * time may fail on my side
 * I shut my door and try to hide,
 * I sit down and lift my chin, buckle up and login


 * Tis' only a moment from when sign
 * that my friends see my state "online"
 * Invites stack like bails of wheat
 * and I just got here in my seat
 * But which group should I play? I just need a win today!


 * I join a group for a quick game
 * I hope to hell they feel the same
 * To tank, or cast or fight or troll,
 * Which champ do I wish to roll?
 * This group they play much too tame, I know that I must bring the pain


 * For this task there is only one,
 * Champ I trust to get it done.
 * This champ is known for her burst
 * (Although her farming is the worst,
 * But, since this Poem is by me, there is no doubt it is Poppy.)


 * On my team there are four more
 * Alistar at tank, cries his roar
 * Burning Brand with flames he sears
 * The sad Mummy with pouring tears.
 * With Rifle, traps and ammo tin, at fourth we have Caitlyn.


 * Our champs selected we have but wait.
 * It seems the other team is late.
 * We use this time to make our plan
 * And claim our lanes the best we can
 * The game loads up before we know and we're at the well, time to go.


 * Ali n' I are 'signed to bot
 * So I buy boots, 2 reds, and a blue pot.
 * We quickly rush out to our lane
 * Her charge the first skill that I train
 * Ali's job s'to spring me free, to run around and be care-ee


 * We wait, they won't, OH WHAT THE HECK!
 * Their Yi steps up to come facecheck!!
 * I charge, Al slams, and when Yi fell
 * We hit him with an ex-haust spell
 * Before we could even count to three, It was first blood that fell to me.


 * The build I have gets real fast
 * I charge at foes with my shield cast
 * With Poppy's hammer I smash their head
 * First one, then two, then three are dead.
 * I hit the key that makes me run, and let me team then join the fun.


 * It takes not long to start this rout
 * and we look to win this short bout
 * Their trynd cries "Pop so OH PEE!!"
 * "It's not the char it's just me"
 * "One vee one me to make it fair", "Tis a team game." I declare.


 * One by one their tower's fall
 * With four Kay gold I then recall
 * For fun I get a bloodthirster
 * And go back for their inhib eh tor.
 * "Gee Gee" to all their team wrote, and they pass a surrender vote.


 * I check the time to see how late
 * For this team would like two straight
 * I think "I shouldn't" as I shift
 * But that last game was much too swift.
 * It seems Once more that I will drift for another round on. . .
 * Summoner's Rift.
