The wrong sort of rain
Pulls down outer zones' LV.
Tottenham Court Road.
Looking for open track
North or South? No try Amersham
That should raise back th LV.
Looking for clear track
North or South? Try Amersham
That should raise LV.

The rules of haiku
Are of counting syllables:
Five, seven, then five.

As the game title says, "5-7-5"...

Capping the LV
To no more than 3.2
With Walthamstow. Yes.
Crossharbour & Lon...
...don Arena is quite diff..
...icult to make fit!
Going around but
Not quite a circle. Now is
the time for Oval.
Shapeshifting cascade!
Squashing poor Boolbar's Oval
With my posh Sloane Square
Never mind all that
put purple podumes on Bank
no diagonals!
Now I join the game
The start is all important
But I must *farkle*
I too can now start
Heading south of the river
Ho! To Clapham South.
Rebounding Software
Into High Street Kensington
I strile to Uxbridge.
Yet more hopefuls come,
Try to follow at their peril,
Knip for you; Elm Park
Pickering northwest --
Insufficient red tokens --
Harrow-on-the-Hill.
I pick up my prize
Two gleaming silver podumes!
And move to Morden
High Street Kensington.
A move which sets up a spike
Along DLR.
Red token from Bank, Power failure - Northern Line
Cuts LV in half.
sorry

Red token from Bank,
Power failure - Northern Line
Cuts LV in half.

Looks like I have been
badly derailed at Elm Park.
Dammit. Bugger. F***!
I cannot join, then.
That strands me at Upminster
I'll spectate from there.
Sucked into the loop!
The repetitive Dollis
Hill we all dreaded.
A costly side move,
Barely dodging loop entry:

Willesden Green, gently.

<p> not <br>?
Gag me with a spoon, but my
HTML sucks.
A flick of the wrist
A nudge with the right buttock
And Cockfosters bound.
Long left straddle
Red token at Colindale
Tea and two biscuits
That puts me in spoon
So I shall raise two fingers
And sulk at Debden
Avoiding knip
To Roding Valley I'm bound.
Shiny gold podume!
Still at Dollis Hill
Bah, humbug. I hate Dollis.
At least the rain's stopped.
Trapped on Jubilee!
A lifeline for Tuj? Not now...
Swiss Cottage, revenge!
To Latimer Road
I move, there depositing
Fifteen blue podumes.
No-one moves, a pause. They await with baited breath. Suddenly - Balham!
(Let's try again)

No-one moves, a pause.
They await with baited breath.
Suddenly - Balham!

Like lightning I strike
A flash from heavens to earth
Illuming Morden.
For my first move here
I play conservatively:
Tower Hill looks safe.
To hell with safe play
I need excitement, and fast.
Walthamstow Central
Bank, For Monument
I suppose. Or should that be
Monument, For Bank?
