Small Games

Just pretend you gave homework.
Loopdy-loops stretch across the wide-ruled pages of more notebooks than my hands can count.
Please pass the broccoli and my next word. Make it tricky.
I swear that 'swear' is not a swear.
Only low ankle socks are fair, unless you're playing twister.
License plates and trucks don't count, you know.
Unless it's a Q.
Does anyone have a pitch white smaller half?
The stumps upstairs give way to hobby-horse axes,
but you have to put your back into it.
And hobby-horse hammers work best on beanbag chairs,
but only when the chairs are nails.
When the nails are money, you're in business if you have a scooter.
Make sure the tag is yours.
No biting, licking, kicking, hitting, hair-pulling, or tickling.
That is, unless you aren't playing.
