I wish I could write a war
And win it with a word
My pen alone cannot prevail
But prayer can
Move heaven
And shake the earth
Until all the silt is sifted away
You can depend on me
To pen and pray these prayers
And fiercely fight
With every word I write
My roommate often tells my dog that she cannot play tug of war with him when he wants to play with her. So, I often wonder why we call that game tug of war and not war of tug.
Cuz they are not really warring in my opinion. They are actually tugging. So I think I will call it war of tug from now on.
What do you think? Vote for what you think this game should be called.
