The Revival of Gladiator Games

by jake cosmos aller


The author has placed a warning on this post for violence.

 Joe Lewis

After civil war 2.0

Found himself

 In the Christian States of America,

In a fake Roman coliseum

With ten other political prisoners.

 In a fight to the death

 Live Gladiator game,

Fighting  against themselves

 And the wild animals.

. Survivors,

If any,

 Would be given

A full pardon,

and one million dollars.

Joe’s strategy

Defeat the animals first.

Alligators, bears, lions,

 Hyenas, tigers, and wolves

Enter the pit,

 Instantly killing

Seven of the prisoners.

Joe killed a bear, a lion, and a tiger,

And then the remaining prisoners,

Winning his freedom.
