Xbox, Xbox
A Love Poem
From the book The Biggest Burp Ever
Xbox, Xbox,
you’re the one for me.
I also love my 3DS
and my Nintendo Wii.
GameCube, GameBoy,
Apple iPod Touch.
I never thought that I would ever
be in love this much.
Pac-Man, Sonic,
Mario, and Link.
Your names are etched inside my mind
in everlasting ink.
Run, jump, flip, hang,
double-jump, and climb.
That’s all I want to do
with every second of my time.
This is true love.
Yes, it’s plain to see.
Xbox, Xbox,
will you marry me?
