Bump hump chump.

[France]

To the great nations, I must address
My ignorance of such forum jest
Twas negotiation without a chance
For fatherly France to truly glance
Or put his writing to the test

I must take note of German's moves
I certainly feel indeed it proves
A lack of worth the trust he bring
For old poet lies he doth seem sing!
And thus his armies must remove

Tis not me who will remain
Or teach the German to restrain
As Friendly's sword is soon to return
To find the treachery has took its turn
(And France's dear heart to find is maimed]

So long dear friends it has been well
To read of poem and able tell
My friends of such noble quality
I have enjoyed the frivolity
(Though indeed I may stop by to dwell!)

As sitter I feel I must request
Understanding when I suggest
That Germany should turn on France
In this the merry world war dance

And point to prove the lies of other
Who vex and 'fuse the German father
When seeking whom his allies be
And only had he looked to me

There is still time, you can confirm
(In time with Friendly's Sword return)
To prove once 'gain the ally be
To truth and (of course) French liberty!

[Austria]
We welcome our replacement bard
Though your position looks quite hard
I remain neutral in your fight
both have a lot of bite.

Sure not fear of war pretend
When not to choose your armies send
A worthy ally in distress
Over the great German duress?

[Russia]

Oh dear, that stupid problem with the pause
Is still unresolved and now I am stung.
I entered no moves, tho not without cause.
Between life and death, I find myself hung.

My apologies to all, I was gone.
I mistakenly thought the game was stayed.
My promised retreat from Silesia
Still now, woe is to me, remains unplayed.

To the Kaiser, your moves eastward I see.
I get your need to be on the defense.
The retreat to Warsaw will come to be,
Please halt your current move to the offense.

To Austria, a simple question here.
What are your plans for the future, my dear?

[Austria]
Russia, betrayed by the 0.9,
Lost his turn, we ought to make this fine.
I'll continue to remove the Turk
To continue our fine work.

[Germany]

To all you wonderful guys
I must apologize
For it seems I've been under a rock
Or perhaps had writers block
But work was a temporary mess
And I was simply under some stress
But now things are back to norm
And I'll send poems like a storm.

[Germany]

To France, I must discuss
a misunderstanding or two
for you've demonstrated your trust
which appears to be quite true

The move to Belgium in spring
had made me a little wary
So when autumn time did bring
the move to Edi was harried

But I see you meant no harm
and harmlessly we bounced
our relationship's still warm
as neither of us were trounced.

[Germany]

To Russia, I only moved
to cover my home SCs
I hope that also proved
that firm is our treatise.

[Germany]

Dear Austria/Italy I seek advice
for my borders are made of friends
I really don't want to get caught in a vice
nor actively seek to offend

But it may be time to look far past
the current state of affairs
And perhaps it's time the dice are cast
and let the battle trumpets blare.

[Austria]
Advice is forthcoming good German friend.
Do not sway from the path, fo that shall be your end
The Sword does not forgive trespass lightly
To escape: be strong or sprightly

Russia, Turkey is nearly dead
I am worried that the target is the only
bind between purple and red
Renew the alliance to prevent our's lonely.

[Russia]

This is the problem playing with good people,
I'm honestly at the end of my wit.
All are friendly, like bells in the steeple,
And I don't know which one needs to be hit!

Austria, we have worked well together
And I don't see why we should turn THAT lever.

[Austria]
Russia, your caring words give strength to our tie
The Iron curtain is swept aside to be replaced by delicate silk
Turkey will suffer for his cowardly fly
A peace will rule in the balkan, profit we shall milk.

[Germany]

All my talk, and what did I lack?
Putting my orders through.
I'm just glad that no one attacked
Or I would have been really blue.

[Germany]

Bounces, bounces everywhere
and not a place to move in
If everyone moves as expected
then I'll end where I begin

With little talking this turn
I decided to play around
No cities should I burn
I expect to gain no ground

So please take no ill will
For I'm not lookin to peck a fight
But I couldn't keep sitting still
It really just did not seem right.

[Austria]
@Russia

Sorry for the stab
It was not justified true
I was made nervous

Your last message did
set my senses tingling
of paranoia.

Lack of targetry
did disguise your aims of me
warning not deflected.

[Russia]

Do not try your voice to chime.
It's bad enough to see your slime.
But things must be rough,
You can't be bothered enough,
To think and evenTRY to rhyme.

To the rest, I offer this:
A public foe is what this is.
He stabs, then wants kisses.
He thinks me witless,
Doesn't know I'm gonna whip this.
For sure, I'm gonna need a witness.
Brown and Green, let's tip this.
Reach back far, and hit this.
We're not at war, let's rip this
Betrayer and make him titless.
Grab a hammer and chip his
Hips and hit his titless, dickless
Body til his mouth is spitless.

And when his body is lying there, still.
(Respect.) You holler: You keep what you kill!

[Germany]

Help from Green may be a bit tough
my relations w/ Blue may be taut
For they're engaged in battle
and I didn't bounce like I thought

But I can make it up to Blue
if I help him down below
But getting involved in your war too?
now, that I do not know.

But if Blue only needs a little of mine
and the rest can sent to your front
Then I may be able to assist after all
but I know the Sword's edge isn't blunt.

[Austria]
Russia's press is an attempt
to dirty all my reputation
lashing out at me in rhyme
with undeserved indignation.

He accuses me of stopping my rhyme
the Japanese will not like that
their national poetry, the haiku, is crimed
and Russia ignores the Haiku knack.

He calls in my friends to fight fo him
only when desperations force
what has Russia done to earn this support?
Neutrality is the honest course

Germany and Italy, I mediated your truce
which enabled you to fight the French
Friendship between the central 3
binds us in an everlasting clench.

[Germany]

I must admit I laughed aloud
for 'twas funny to me
That three countries were quite proud
to enter the North Sea

All were repelled right back into
the lands from which they came
Still empty is that ocean blue
our attempts were all in vain.

Again my ears are open wide
to see what can be done
What countries can my armies slide
into, and have some fun

[Germany]

I'd like to add a little spice
and give something a try
So Italy, let's roll the dice
will you support me into Pie?

And Russia, I say, let's get it done
to keep enemies at bay
It's time we had a little fun
before the end of day.

So let us work to get you where
we know you wish to be
And into France let's put a scare
as your fleet's in the North Sea.

But don't forget, my friendly Tsar
to protect your fair Oslo
So Norwegian Sea cannot mar
should Norway he choose to go

Lest we fail to recall, my chap
the mainland as were,
And so Vienna I will tap
to allow more to occur.

Perhaps Silesia can support
to push Galicia out
And come spring we can report
our units had some clout.

Piedmont support, it's true, you will have.
Provided it's France that you stab.
His moves are offensive,
And his rhymes not pensive,
So we welcome your help for our half.

Meta: Sorry I haven't been too active, I'm getting ready to go back to school and I really don't have time to do much rhyming :-/.

[Austria]
Germany, what has Russia said to you
that would make you fall upon me with such malicia
remember not to trust the Tsar
He will attack us both with galicia

Italy calls for your aid.
France will grow great;
coalescing menace on your west
should Italy fall to this hate

Germany and Austria are natural friends
With Italy too for the central trio
Russia and France will squeeze
unless we stop them through teamwork and trial.

[Austria]
Gaidin, best poet.
Acrostics I've not yet seen
Leaving press not whole

Seeing that you attack Vienna

Seeing your press
I prepare defense of all
Learn to hide your press

Today, for I have an answer

We can achieve with
A great code of subtlety
Revealing not us.

Austria-Meta
Five of the Seven are left alive
Three of the Five hold to a draw
Should I know the mind of this
I would add my voice

[France]

My friendly friends, I am contrite
For long I have had naught to write
Busy with my other games
I let this one go up in flames
But now I seek to set it right


I must first mention, numerous foes
Despite the hype my empire *not* grows
Faced by my rivals
I seek just survival
And still I must face such angry blows


Germans, Germans, I first must wonder
What have I done to deserve such blunder
If you and I fight
And waste all our might
The Russian will have some easy plunder

But stick with me, and you'll agree
Europe will bend to our mutual knee
To Italy I'll guide
And your armies ride
Into new conquered centres with glee

But if not...

Italians, now, may I make a fuss
Why still do you not deal with us?
If I recall back
You were first to attack
What can make peace? I loudly cuss!

If you will bargain, nicely talk
At a withdrawal I shall not balk
I may have other enemies
So I ask you please
Lets deal! Lets deal! Don't be a hawk!



Next to the Northmen, valuable Russians
I ask if you wish to work against Prussians?
I tried to play nice
But he refused my advice
And if he continues his voice can we hushin?s


And finally Austria, my apparent foe
Why do you hate me? I profess not to know
Your press has thus far
My character marr
But a shift in allegiance could make us both glow

Germany's armies look threatening to us both
And though a two front war I really loath
If twas you and I
Versus him and the Italian guy
I think that we maybe could achieve some growth.

[Germany]

To Austria:

What you say is true indeed
that we are naturally friends
But up north I have a real need
for us to meet our ends

So perhaps a balance I can make
and to both of you stay true
Where the N. Sea he can still take
but from your borders I withdrew

So I can help fair Italy
by still eating up some pie
And I'll leave you and the Tsar be
in Asia, at least I'll try.

So Langaidan, it has come to this?
Do I deserve nothing, no response, no kiss?
I treat you with honour
And now I'm a goner
I think we all know what the moral here is
