(Based on a roll of the Taylor Mali's Metaphor Dice that he did on Joh Fugelsang's "Tell Me Everything" on SiriusXM 's Insight channel, broadcasted February 13, 2019. The metaphor they chose was "I am a desperate trophy'. Each guest poet on that program recited a poem they made up on the spot. I decided to do the same on February 14, 2019, the day I listened to that show.)
I am a desperate trophy
Longing to be possessed
Praised and put on the mantle
Gazed and gawked at
Envied and admired daily
However, no one will compete
To win me...
I'm not a game worth playing.
