Troll song. OR: Some sweet naïve paean

I'm doing things of my own worth 
and that my mate, miss, match is 
why I smile. I'm beating you 

at my own damn game again. 
Come contest. 

Play awhile.

_____

It's not the same 
you've played before. 
It never is. You make 
your rule. And I break 

mine. To dig your call, 
your slide, your cool 
damn self and all. 

But 
you
would have to show me 
that. I wouldn't quite 
believe the fact, unless 
you freely give whatevs 
you wanted to. 

That's hearts 
with heads.
