MY TRAP!


Must confess that I'm again hooked; PacMan's back inside my days;
thought I gave him up for school--now he's got me in a haze!
Used to play it with my hubby 30 years ago--how quaint.
(He's put up with me all these years-he deserves to be a Saint.)
Found my Pacman on-line, surfing; looking for something to do,
Trolling game sites, heard the music, then I found my you-know-who!!
Play the game most ev'ry moment of my under-active life--
but I know that I had better quit before it causes strife!
My trap's making me so crazy--I don't quite know where to hide,
'cause I know that any P.C. just might have my friend inside!!
