Rollerball 1


Extreme Street Surfing


250 Dollars to try
the surfing oer the concrete
No flexible water on this one
The surface is on the street
If the cops catch you,
you're on your own.
Good LUck to each participant.
Who will win the extreme street surfing?
The one who breaks not, but is none the less bent


Rollerball 2

Ridley to the Rescue

'Johnny, Hop on in cracker.'
'Damn, it's RIDLEY! Bubba how the hell you been?'
'Fine Johnny, glad to pick you up from that, old street surfer freind.'
'Damn Ridley - ALl that Jewelry on your fingers. How you afford all that?'
'By Playing in the east. In REAL extreme Sport, No Hockey or Ball or bat.'
'You can make it over there too. It aint at all what ou heard.'
'These guys get hurt, no WWE crap. The truth I speak . Each Word.'
'Ridley, thank you just the same. But I'll make the pro hockey league this time'
'Johnny , my plane leaves at nine tonight, just in case you change your mind.'
And Johnny chcnged his mind. Didnt take long either, street crime runnimg amuck.'
He thought, 'Maybe Roller ball's pretty cool after all. Life around here sucks!'

Rollerball 3

Kazakhstan Four Months Subsequent

'Oh, what the hell, Ridley, I'll take a chance.
I wanna find out for myself,
Let's see ruffianism extreme on rollerblades,
Things there are more important the mortl wealth.
I'd kinda like to know how the eastern half lives.
Struggling like crazy in the mines.
Cause there is a world outside America,
all that riff raff and street crime


Rollerball 4

Game One - Vs The Horde

We all function together as a one team unit.
The indivudial must co-operate
with the group if victory is to come our way
and winning is to be our fate.
For quitting teams never win
For winning teams never quit.
All a unit. All for one ,one for all
None o fhis Copwboy hot dog, dog [edited by Moderator]...!

Rollerball 5

A Hard and Brutal Truth

It's more about ratings than anything else.
Th give the ratings a boost.
Management wil whatever it takes.
Which is, to put it politely, uncooth.
If it means maiming or crippling for life.
As it did in Ancient Rome.
The Caligulans will stoop to any level
all with just a few minutes on the phone

Rolelrball 6

Post Game Locker Room

A Rabbit and a Flasher putting on Airs
To Get Miss AUrora's Attention.
You're #1 in my book too pal.
Are you rabbit, due to Fecal Retention?
Poor Miss Aurora, so hard to please.
But is this really the case?
Soon enough she would like to get to gether
with doofus baby face.
Rolelrball 7

Nightclubbing , Kazakh Style

All the stars getting together after the game,
for a drink a good time and a dance.
Tattooed numbers neath the left eye.
That's makes it official. AH! Bizzare Kazakhstani Romance.
Yet something behind the scenes aint quite right.
Are the players no more than slaves?
Does Petrovice not realize that they're only mortal?
And could easily wind up in graves?

Rollerball 8

Habitual Gambling

Kazakhstan is not a wealthy nation,
coal miners like back in Kentucky.
All gambling their green on the brutal bloodsport
Hoiping to wind up quite lucky.
Manipulatoin is another aspect of the game
The poor are exploited, richer become thie rich.
All the plan and all the scheme of
Mr Petrovich.

Rollerball 9

THE BLACK WIDOW SNAGS HER PREY!

Most of the guys on the team are insecure
Which is Why they put on such airs.
Yet the Doofus ass Honkie from back in the states
knows in war and love, ALL IS FAIR!
The Black WIdow Aurora, snagged her White Prey thay night.
RIGHT THERE IN THE DAMN LOCKER ROOM!
Two became one , in a dungeon it seemed.
WOuld it last? Or end quicly and soon?


Rolelrball 10

Miners on Strike

One Man , Mr Petrovich,
a man consumeb by greed.
The more he got the more he wanted
Ignoring the people's needs.
Would their voices be raised un unison
only wanting conditions most fair?
Would they rebel against a brutal tyrant,
who only for money did care?

Rolelrball 11

Jaunt To Zhambal

The Pushover's Of the league.
One resembling the Tin WOodman
From the Wizard of oz.
That's right, just a giant tin can.
In front of 50000 people too.
An embarrasing display.
Possibly cause they ere the worst team in the league,.
even for rollerball, bizzare and grotesque was the play

Rolelrball 12

Goon Squad of the Gobi.

Mongolian Stompers.
Next to Siberia, the game's dirtiest team.
Stooping to any level, physiical or psychological
to win it. What is it? A CRAZY GAME!
Sabotage, Psychology, freakish size. Dont matter. Hear my call
Cause the bigger you are, as in David and Goliath, The harder on your backside you fall.


Rolelrball 13

Truth Realized

Racing to Russia oer the Gobi,
On a lowly motorcycle.
Petrovich had his own plane and goon squad.
Complete with ammo and rifles.
Jonathan realied at the time, that Aurora loved him, but not as Marcus, however.
For Marcus surrened his life that Johnny would go on.
Love unduplicatable, not now, not ever.

Rolelrball 14

Aurora - Golden Horde

A match formerly made in Heaven
had now gone straight to hell.
For as hell's flaming Chariots came the Horde.
A brutal tale to tell.
Petrovich's Brainchildrem,
of the league, his cream dee la dream.
The championship game now set for the Horsemen
adn Golden Horde's Team

Rolelrball 15

THE MINERS RISE!

The Miners' the true life blood of rolelrball
Had been treated so severly.
Petrovich had no regard for them
only their money, he was cold and dreary.
'YOU CAN NO LONGER CONTROL US!
WE'RE NOT YOUR SLAVES PETROVICH!
Jonathan is a true hero.
For irreplaceable is the way he is rich.

Rollerlball 16

Aurora didnt give up hope

She knew the she and Johnny were meant to be together,
regardless of the uniform.
For they took away from each other the cold.
And gave to each other , all that's warm.
And never would they seperate again.
For they rose with the miners too.
And truest love blossomed and grew evermore
Mars Johhny Red, And the Black Widow Blue.

Your poetry is strong, you've got the discipline to stay with a subject for some period of time, and I would ask that you review our guidelines on what's appropriate, what isn't [small editing made by me ] and I think you're going to find us to be a very welcome audience!  Thanks for the read!
