Play a game of skittles
with vocabulary
roll a word in middle
of the bowling alley

watch how word can strike
many pins at once
as a gardener's spike
impales bits he hunts

here's a word that's difficult
to see how it will pair
as a victim stifled in cult
struggling for the air

like a row of dominoes
in standing row *****
one word in line of prose
has a linear effect

knocking a thought on the nose
it couples with a next
and as your first line goes 'n grows
it creates what you least expect
