The Hunger Games

I did an activity in a setting

That evokes a novel mood,

Then you you see my way of life

And my love interest dude.

Then it’s all turned upside down

In this young adult dystopia,

And I have to kill some children

Packed inside a cornucopia.

Eventually I win the games,

Then I go back my fam.

Then I go on a victory tour

In a super-high-tech tram.

I see some starving people

And they kiss their fingers at me.

I say some stupid, honest stuff

And hope they’ll let me be.

Alas, I’m wrong, and the mean white guy

Puts me back in the game.

I bust out with an arrow.

A shoddy forcefield’s to blame.

I find myself deep underground

Amidst a rebel plot,

And I get to dress up like a bird

And get the rebels hot.

We fight a war and sort of win

(‘Cause lots of people die).

Then I marry love interest

And bid you all good bye.
