I’m a bit of a shut-in,
A nerd I confess.
(A semi-pro poet?
Now who’d ever guess?)
But today I got social.
(Is he out of his mind?)
I got out of the house
Leaving nerddom behind.
At 8:00 AM sharp
I watched children play chess
Then I drove to Canada
To play Pokemon (yes).
Then I played a game
Of Sekigahara
Which is about Japanese folks
Whose names rhyme with Ishikara.
I ended it all
By taking a friend
To an improv show based on
The D&D trend.
I got home at 11:00
And 51 minutes.
It’s good to know I’m
A nerd no longer, innit?
