Today's Poem: Gameland by Cassie Francis

One day I woke to a big surprise,
Something very strange before my eyes;
I was a piece on a board and all I could see
Was everything to do with Monopoly!
I was low on money and about to be in jail
This game stunk I wanted to bail.
It was not easy but I somehow got out
And found my self fishing about!
“Go Fish”, someone said, and grabbed my back.
“I fished my wish”, back on track!
I am finally out of this crazy game!
“King me” I hear, this is just more of the same.
I am a red piece and holding my ground.
This is one of the scariest games around!
Oh no I say I am about to be jumped and taken!
But then I am finally awakened.
