Pick Up the Sticks

She sat down at the sticks.

Over the connection he looked at her severely.

She rolled with the picks.

He scrolled through the titles clearly.

With microphone near her mouth

She spoke codes and cheats.

He fought her north to south

All over the screen they stamped digital cleats.

These lovers found gaming

Through the channels of the ‘Net.

In the process of aiming

They each guided their avatars without a sweat.

From shooting, to collecting, to running plays

The two lovers found a bond.

For a couple to be up in their days,

They linked up across the pond.

The Internet allowed for them to meet.

They enjoyed the battle, either win or defeat.
