So Very Wrong About Games

#237: Flamecraft


Listen Later

"Let us go then, you and I,
When the board is spread out against the table
Like a beast euthanized inside a stable;
Let us go, through certain half-deserted tracks,
The muttering attacks
During restless nights of one-play bad games
And sepia box lids with familiar names:
Rules that follow like a tedious argument
Of soporific intent
To lead you to an overwhelming question ...
Oh, do not ask, “What to play?”
Let us go and have our say.

In the room the gamers come and stay
Talking of Asmodee."

-The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock
