| ![[Game] February 2018: Tuxedo Poetry Slam C2Ajh0s](https://i.imgur.com/c2Ajh0s.png) You find yourself in a strange place, surrounded by solemn-faced men in tuxedos with white masks on the upper half of their faces, obscuring their eyes. They look very similar, although one or two of them stand out somehow, despite their uniform choice of attire. The tension in the air makes you glance away when you catch a glimpse of eye contact with these quiet men. You realize that some of them are muttering under their breath; you catch a few words from one standing near you, but you can't quite make sense of it.
What are they all doing here? What is going on?
"Thank you for joining us today, sirs!" states a voice.
You look up towards the velvet-curtained stage at the other end of the room.
"Gentlemen, form your teams. Begin your poems!"How to PlayTogether, we will write a style of "pantoum" poems. These 3-stanza poems repeat lines from previous stanzas in the final stanza. Post a line in this thread making sure that you begin your post with the label "Line A, B, C, D, E, or F" For example: Line A - The petal softly drifted down Pantoum Format for this Game

Completed Poems
The moon hung heavy in the sky
Remains of battles lost bathed in its light
A suffocating song ringing silently on the breeze
Hesitant feet dance through destruction
Remains of battles lost bathed in its light
What was lost can never be returned to
Hesitant feet dance through destruction
A glowing world now shattered and silent
What was lost can never be returned to
A suffocating song ringing silently on the breeze
A glowing world now shattered and silent
The moon hung heavy in the sky |

| We've completed our first poem!  GOOD JOB, TEAM!! The moon hung heavy in the sky
Remains of battles lost bathed in its light
A suffocating song ringing silently on the breeze
Hesitant feet dance through destruction
Remains of battles lost bathed in its light
What was lost can never be returned to
Hesitant feet dance through destruction
A glowing world now shattered and silent
What was lost can never be returned to
A suffocating song ringing silently on the breeze
A glowing world now shattered and silent
The moon hung heavy in the sky |
