headshot
Creep, sneak, peek, shoot,
killing polygon's a hoot.
Slashing textures, pressing square,
lots of blood but I don't care.
Volumetric, real time lighting,
hate to die, love the fighting.
Bombs explode, feel the rumble,
shoot a leg to see them crumble.
Snigger at the points I got:
'mummy please, one more headshot'

You have a way with words. I still think that a few caps wouldn't go amiss.

this edited version is shorter than your usual offerings, Azmakna ...
and, while emotive, lacks the imagery or the engagement
that I've come to expect from your work ...
it also lacks punctuation ...

If you're going to insult me then you could at least put some feeling behind it and do it intentionally.

well ... this piece of fun just had to rhyme ...
or it wouldn't have worked ...
but, Azmakna, it seems the intoxicating lady
has thrown down (or merely dropped?) her glove
and set thee a quest worthy of a champion ...
go forth, and rhyme not, to prove thyself ...

Don't you think it more of a challenge for those who forsake rhyme and metre to try to work with it? If you looked at some of the other poems that Az has posted recently then you might find, anyway, that the challenge was met before it was made.

Perhaps, but I'm not the one to tell ...
