  1. "lads are courting
    lambs are sporting"

  3. I love this. Especially “focus” on its own line—it reminds me of that obnoxiously catchy Ariana Grande song. :)

    I love these lines together—the rhythm and flow:

    “lads are courting
    lambs are sporting”

  6. Yes, it doesnt pay to be distracted. There is a fantastic movie about a girl who is a whizz at chess titled The Queen's Gambit. Really good story.
