Hi, my name is James.
I love to play video games.
From PC to Xbox to PS5,
Every game you know,
I can name them all.
My mum complains badly I drive her insane,
watching me fight Zombies in the fast lane.
With her angry face and hands-on-hips,
raging wrath gushing out of her lips:
"When will you ever be tamed?"
"No more excuses that are lame!”
"Do your homework before you play!”
“Oh please! Let me game for a while..." I pray.
Then mum bribes me with scrumptious ice cream,
while we watch Netflix on video stream,
so happily I will watch Netflix and play video games in my dreams.
