All unpacked now, two hours in,

Time for the game to really begin!

Start my first turn — wait, what’s that term?

Back to the rulebook I will refer.

Where is the index? What’s the symbol?

Brain melting but fingers nimble.

Flipping through the pages fast,

There it is! Found you at last!

Now what did I do this turn again?

Just a min ago or ten…

So many parts, so many names,

The joy of heavy solo games.
