Ode to a Plumber

Digital perfection
16 pixels square
dancing on the screen

Soaring high into the air
Reaching for the heavens
Then crashing down

A white glove reaching above
A red hat and breaking
An orange brick

Red overalls contrast the
Green turtle shell under your
Brown workmen's boots

A mushroom emerging from a box
Shifting magically to the right.
David becomes Goliath

A twinkling shooting star
Falling from the heavens
The gods power you

Down a black narrow hall
Dodging fireballs and facing
A reptilian nightmare

Dashing down an alleyway
Tail flapping in the breeze
And flying till eternity

As my fingers tap the controls
These vivid videogame visions splash my face.
I'm amazed, not for the first time

Dancing on my screen
16 pixels square
Digital perfection
