Rules:
Write a poem for a Joker. Follow an A-BB-A rhyme and an 8-8-8 syllabic format, similar to mem cake descriptions in Splatoon.
Example:
Joker
Don't change rules, or trigger twice,
Or multiply the numbers high...
Just +4 Mult ought to suffice.
tough patrol
isn't that last line only 7 syllables?
wintry dirge
Oh yeah, welp.
stone fern
smh
wintry dirge
fixed!
tough patrol
Space Joker
Way up there and ready to fly,
What you play may get up so high.
Level up and reach for the sky!
wintry dirge
that's way off on syllable count, and the second line needs to have a rhyme within it (multiply/high)
tough patrol
you pronounce contractions as 2 syllables?
wintry dirge
oh syllable count's fine, i think the meter's the issue
tough patrol
that better?
wintry dirge
a biiiit
Gros Michel
A memory of distant past,
Fighting chance for one final dance,
Which of the blinds will be its last?
stone fern
that's way off on syllable count, and the second line needs to have a rhyme with...
they all look like 8 syllables to me idk

Blueprint
"I'm with stupid", says my t-shirt.
Pointing right, you're in line of sight.
Without you, I'm as good as dirt.

Cavendish
From the ashes is born new fruit
Tripled mult is sweet and stable
To pass me by, a point quite moot.
wintry dirge
Oops, All 6s
Chaos rules when I'm on the scene,
Joys abounding, smashed glass sounding,
Destruction in a stark lime green.
tough patrol
Burnt Joker
Charred and ruined though I may be
What you discard can be greater
When I make it strong and healthy.
wintry dirge
Midas Mask
Faces I touch bear a gold glow.
Held in hand, could make you a grand.
Oh, nobody's home? I should go...
wintry dirge
Egg
Each blind, its value will enhance,
Incubating, kept in waiting,
Necessitating temperance.

Red Card
Should you skip a bad booster pack
My whistle will speak to all ears
And trade you 3 mult in the back.
wintry dirge
Lusty Joker
Cards of red are my beloved.
Granting mult three, in lust, be free,
Ignite the flame, beware the Head.
Throwback
Don't you remember the good days
When games were fun? Let's skip this run.
Play something else! Hope those tags pay.
Card Sharp
Stick to what's tried and what's true, bud.
Play it again, right 'til the end!
If you catch Eye, this run's a dud...
The Idol
This card is my favourite thing.
I'm quite fickle, don't get pickled...
Please, won't you Death that lucky King?
tough patrol
Stuntman
Here I go, you can scream and shout!
Bet your chips I'll make it through this!
Smaller hand size makes me crash out.
Hologram
Look at me, I'm great in 3-D!
Add some cards and I'll go quite far
Helping you to win this run. See?
wintry dirge
Constellation
Like a sunburst or supernova,
Solar system, seek its wisdom,
Let's tour space before it's over.
shout-out to my main man sephiroth, dude really said fuck planets
tough patrol
Arrowhead
Sharp as flint and black as the night,
Spades are my deal when it gets real.
Chips off the block will serve you right.
tough patrol
Invisible Joker
Now you see me and now you don't,
Two rounds pass by till it's my time.
Copy that, regret it you won't.
tough patrol
Business Card
Greetings, player, look on my wares.
Show your faces (not the aces!)
And I'll grant you funds, only fair.
wintry dirge
Canio
All who oppose me meet their deaths.
Every face sees your score raise.
Your path is paved by their last breaths.
tough patrol
**Canio**
All who oppose me meet their deaths.
Every face sees your score raise....
except jacks. but it's good
Yorick
Literature gives me no role,
Although my skull becomes more full.
Alas, poor cards will fill that hole.
wintry dirge
