Tic Tac Toe




X



roll it
and see what you get
throw the dice in
don't live with regret

roulette
just spin it around
drop that ball in
where chances abound

rule it
but don't be a god
weave in and out
to even the odds


O


sensor
for treason and rhyme
don't numb yourself
and you'll be just fine

censor
and edit the mess
no need to fret
there will be success

censer
you burn from within
yearning, fuming
emitting through skin


X


thicket
some things do hinder
some a mirage
others for tinder

ticket
paper for passage
ready to leave
no excess baggage

take it
prep for departure
no time to waste
move like a marcher


O


holey
so inconsistent
they drown you out
just be persistent

wholly
keep your heart intact
don't draw first blood
wait for first contact

holy
the ultimate goal
stay low, go slow
take care of your soul


X


palette
every shade and hue
vibrant or plain
you need to go through

palate
keep your tongue in check
hard and soft words
yourself to protect

pallet
a place for your head
lie down, be still
on this makeshift bed


O


myna
mimic nobody
you are unique
superb not shoddy

minor
trivial not special
keep them mole hills
inconsequential

miner
dig deep and find gold
treasures abound
they're things to behold



O   O   O
