Poetry Project, V. 8.0, days 10,11,12

Whooooo!  And we get caught up today!  been a silly few days, and now I am looking forward to a long weekend in which I can hopefully get a few chores done, and perhaps some writing as well!  Of course, more poetry is on the way, but who knows, maybe I shall be able to get other writing done as well.  It would certainly be nice!  Anyway, on to the poems for today!!

a brief exercise

she her i you they
me him he us we - 
when you put them together randomly, 
it sounds ridiculous.
but put the word 'love' between any two, 
and it works.
it makes sense.
now try it with 'hate.'
it can be done, sure,
but which was more enjoyable?
love always wins.

hockey town

pale blue spring skies
hold sway over a quiet arena,
where later thousands will be gathered
to watch the spectacle -
heroes both made and broken
in contest with one another.
we've come so far,
but not far at all.
we're just a more modern Rome.

we fight sometimes

we fight sometimes,
but not like everyone else,
a battle of wits 
where the weapons are phrases like, 
"i love you more than _"
and we fill in the blank
the way we fill in the blanks spaces in each other.

Thanks for reading,

Me
