Mornington Crescent
Can be played in Haiku Form
Let the game commence!
Chalky -
Global Spoon? My arse.
Flounce all you like, Darren, but
Leyton will triumph.
Tuj - Sliding through via
Charing Cross for two podumes
And to
Leytonstone
Simons Mith - Is this a spoon which
I see before me? The hand
le toward my hand?
Kiwi Chris - Come, let me clutch thee
I have thee not, and yet I
See thee still, at
Bank
Bif - Not me, squire! You Err.
Your bifocals need changing
For I'm in
Stanmore and have been for Lo! These many days and then some, Alone and Adrift
Darren - I notice Chalky
Has played the famous "my arse."
This means
Farringdon
Tuj - Escalating the
Violence, and invoking
Uh-oh!:
Upton Park.
Kiwi Chris - Fresh from the weekend
I check my favourite game
And move to
Archway
Simons Mith -
Stale after the pub
I check my favourite game
And then return here.
nights - After a long shift
I am pleased to see my home
MC on the screen
nights -
(and miss the point entirely)
ZK - Dropped in yonks ago...
Harrow and Wealdstone!I say, and then leave.
ZK - When I am sober
I can count my syllables
before I submit.
Chalky - Release those podumes!
[Standard mis-counting forfeit]
Now I'll play
Oval
Tuj - A shot in the dark
And a
really sinister
Podume found at
Bank.
Kiwi Chris - Taking heed of the
Sinister Podume alert
Hiding at
New Cross
Bif - Poisoned litter to
Scatter at
Wimbledon should
Bag a few Wombles
Kiwi Chris - What have the Wombles
Done to you? Moving to build
A refuge at
Bank
Bif - All those Christmas songs!
You should mind your own beeswax
Meanwhile,
Leicester Square
Kiwi Chris - But they are so cute
Didn't know they made beeswax :)
Anyway,
Uxbridge
ZK - Only heard one song.
What are the other ones then?*Hops off at
Temple*
Simons Mith - The commentator
speaking in hushed tones tells us
the endgame is near.
Commentator - Speaking in hushed tones
I tell the players that it's
A game of two halves.
Tuj - I'll have to
*f*a*r*k*l*e*While I shoot myself in the
HTML head.
Bif - Simons continues
To comment without playing
I move back to
Bank
Kim - Making a late tilt
At undeserved glory
I essay
Bond Street!
Kim - (that's "un-de-ser-ved", BTW)
Tuj - Reasserting my
Authority (podumes-wise)
One more at
Poplar.
Simons Mith - Perhaps I should
frumeBut even now I think that's
unduly forward.
nights - once again I see that
the haiku game is living
I say: "right foot
Bank"
nights -
and spontaneously forget how to count...
Kiwi Chris - Counting carefully
Moving off to
Mill Hill East Scheming a dark scheme
Simons Mith - Is everyone lulled?
I don't really need to know,
I'm just curious.
Tuj - Exploding onto
The scene and pushing onward
To
Fulham Broadway
Simons Mith - The time is now right
For me to enter the game;
Mornington Crescent.
Tuj - I call thee offside!
However, I'm not, and:
Mornington Crescent!!
Audience -
*shouts, screams, generally goes wild for Tuj*
Tuj - I did enjoy that
But all good things must come to
(dot) (dot) (dot) (dot) (dot)
This is the end of the line. There is no more.
