Pac-man

I drop my shiny token
Into the token slot
Then I grab the joy stick
And give it all I got.

My little yellow Pac-man
Is running thru the maze
Eating all the yellow dots
Flying ‘round like he’s crazed.

The ghosts are in the center
Awaiting side by side
First one out is “Blinky”
Then “Pinky,” “Inky,” and “Clyde.”

My Pac-man eats a power pellet
The ghosts all turn and run
Fleeing at a rapid pace
Drat!  I only got one.

I move to the second level
My Pac-man running wild
Eating dots and feisty ghosts
Like they’re going out of style.

My Pac-man is eventually beaten,
Sadly, my turn is lost
A brief respite from reality
At such a little cost.
