Chalky
Pressed his point
CdM
most forcefully

The man there smoking a joint
Raak
What was that?
Raak
I mean...
The man there smoking a joint
Most forcefully
Pressed his point
Until I can't no more
Have we invented the modern poetry version of a glow-worm?
Projoy
Probably the least competent reverse engineering I've seen in a verse game (although I think CdM was trying to append his bit to the end of Chalky's foreshortened line). I think we should have another go.
And still it makes no sense.
Raak
I've read it inside-out and back
Radox The Green
Nor who, nor why, nor whence
CdM
I don't know how it went off-track
[Projoy] Yes, that was my intention. I was imagining something like
I pled my case remorsefully
He still had points to score
Pressed his point most forcefully
Until I can't no more

Projoy
I wish I were a versewright's mate
Software
With my quill in hand
Chalky
I'd scribe the words he doth dictate
CdM
And

I wish I'd been more skeptical
CdM neat
Rosie
'Bout what I see online
Projoy
Now I don't know which step to call
Projoy
forget that, try this:
My brain's now the receptacle
Raak
For sinker, hook, and line.
KagomeShuko
I wish had some Chapstick
Projoy
For my little chap-struck knees
Software
I'd smear it very carefully
Rosie
And put myself at ease.
Projoy
I wish I could go back again
Rosie
To glorious Timbuktu
Raak
The Athens of old Mali
Software
And pre-Brexit too
KagomeShuko
If I were a dinosaur
Rosie
Which I am, but that's a joke
Projoy
I'd surely be the cynosure
Software
As fun at me they poke
Projoy
of mice and men and rats and sots
Raak
i weave this ’structive tale
KagomeShuko
A bunch of gin has sure gots
Software
More alcohol than ale.
Projoy
I wonder why there are not more
