Another Poetry Collaboration Game:
This one is much more simple (so maybe somebody will actually play it

)
We will start with a short phrase like:
the moon is full
. . . and then the next player will start their phrase on the next line, but imply the last word into the new line:
the moon is full
tits are better
men have tried
which would represent:
the moon is
full
full tits are
better
better men have tried . . .
And I'll leave that as the first line:
better men have
tried

How long after picking up the brush, the first masterpiece?
The goal is not to obfuscate that which is clear, but make clear that which isn't.

That was my original intent. And also my intent was
not to repeat the end word, but rather
imply it.
This is what we have so far:
