The Scepter of Bonkers

 The Scepter of Bonkers





Your mind and your heart will go zonkers

if you’re not awesome enough to hold the Scepter of Bonkers


Memories and portents so young and so old

will realise the fantasy you were foretold


Even if you retrieve the bygone name of the game

You and the game, will be the same and not the same


Make every move so glistening and bold

When you win the game the Scepter of Bonkers you will hold


What jagged and bright memorials can we retain?

Memories are the fractured moments that remain


The Scepter of Bonkers can light your board room game decayed brain

Assemblage and reconstruction of our past is our present future bulleting train


Atomic page outrage age burning extra stage of a board game sage

filling a soon to be forgotten digital page


Bonkers is/was a board game

The scepter was something we made only to be held by the victor of the game

Victory brought fame

Losing brought shame

Isn’t this ending lame?



Yours in poetry about old board games,

Count Robot
