Admittedly, this is cornball, but I'm bored.

Everyone gets a couplet, only rules are that your couplet has to rhyme. I'll try and update this so you can see the whole thing without having to scroll through the contributing posts.



As I was walkin' the streets of Avanti ta see where they all led
Who should I meet but a spy at me feet, pretendin' he were dead

I stood atop his would-be corpse, staring at his head,
I took aim with my trusty AC and filled him full of lead

Atop the spy, I see a dot.. . .a sniper in the midst
He's safe from fighting, in respawn hiding. . .I'm dead and very pissed!

With a gib and a splat in respawn I sat, disgusted as I can be
'Cause I was just at cap 1 and it ain't to much fun to run back there from Cap point 3

Are we supposed to make one up? I got one for people who snipe...hehe (also, when i refer to "the cliff" i mean the cliff thingy in warpath where snipers usually sit). This is is pretty corny also

As I sit upon the cliff, just aiming my piece
I take aim at a fatty, and make him decease

My beautiful headshot will make your ego decrease
My aiming is sharp, and as neat as a crease

Darkath, very good, but stick with the theme of the poem that was already started. I'm looking for a couplet that will go with the rest of the poem.

For example

With a gib and a splat in respawn I sat, disgusted as I can be
'Cause I was just at cap 1 and it ain't to much fun to run back there from Cap point 3

Sully change the *can* to *could* to keep the tense the same throughout. ")

And change the *to* to *too.*

Never mind... there are tense issues in another verse and I refuse to drive myself crazy this way!

But away I did trod in the direction of one,
Wishing I weren't too fat to run.

Out of nowhere like a magnet flying through the breeze,
Another EMP landed on my knees.

I thought, "Some engy must be after me!"
And 3 seconds later, back to Command Point 3.
