There once was a D&D game
Hosted by this poet, the same.
It ended quite late
With most epic of fates
But as consequence this poem is lame.

I Used To Write These At 11:59. Now I Write Them At 8:56. I Must Be Getting Old
I played D&D tonight
And we had an epic fight.
Now this nerd must rest his head
Because it’s past his time for bed.

The Fantasy World Has More Normal Names For Its Cities
There once were some nerds from Puyallup
That imagined some monsters to wallop.
They played D&D
‘Til they passed level 3
And yes, that’s an actual place… Puyallup.

OKICURAB
Some think the title is an advocacy group.
Some read “Ok, I see you are a bee.”
Some think it’s the name of a fantasy villain,
And only the last group plays D&D.

The Last Word Means “Isn’t It” In Sekigaharan-Era Japanese… Or Something
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?

The Rogue Turns 21
Murderous harlots,
Criminal trollops,
And other such vagrants
Gathereth here.
They bring you candles
And tall paper hats
To cherish your living
Another whole year.
They blow on noisemakers
And sing stupid songs,
Cut open your cake
With a cold-steel blade.
A few sacrifice
A goat in your honor.
Throughout it all
Your face remains staid.
As your friends dance
In your post-birthday haze
You lighten their purses
And head out the door.
You retire wealthy,
And don’t even mind
That your D&D group
Doesn’t like you no more.
