There once was a baker's son Who despite all the work that had to be done
Longed day and night after a beautiful huntress
Yet Katniss Everdeen put him in the Friend Zone
A torturous district Peeta Mallark could call his own
Each day she spent ignoring him the walls did buttress!
Then one day both misfortune and luck Rained down on Peeta despite the Capitol not
giving a *** He had been chosen to participate in the 74th
Hunger Games!
Effie Trinket's selection surely meant his death was near
Yet oh boy, Katniss had JUST volunteered to save whom she held dear!
Yes FATE must've selected their names.
Well, Prim's name, but whatever...
It took lots of guilt and gossiping with Caesar But finally the sight of him began to please
her. During this courtship they stepped not once
but twice into the arena!
Nightlock berries gave way to pearls - hardly boring
However that damn rebellion continually kept him from scoring.
The last straw being when they left him for dead among the flaming verbena...
But if Peeta thought torture was being separated from Katniss
President Snow gave him a different perspective with malice.
Then to top it off Gale of all people saved him!
And as if that wasn't bad enough Several times Katniss Peeta did try to snuff!
Katniss promptly returned her attention to Prim.
Dead set on assassinating President Snow On one weird group date did Katniss and Gale
go. But President Coin said "Team Peeta" and sent
him as a third wheel!
Peeta back in her life Katniss decided to help him heal
With a couple of rounds of "real or not real" Only then something happened with which Katniss
could not deal...
With two dead presidents and too many friends lost to war and deception
Peeta and Katniss found solace together without contraception.
Now the boy and girl on fire and two little flames!
So to the good guys out there remember this tale
The next time you think you can't compete with an alpha male.
Keep yourself in play and one day you might win your own Love Games!
The End
