neva_black_n_white Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 Mixed up emotions 50-50 on the game Experts make it look easy But that's their aim You pull up a chair No introduction to the table Place your hand on your lap Trying to look able Dealer pulls out a card No going back You see a low number The worst from the pack Keep up the smiles No eye contact made He pulls out a similar hand The smile begins to fade You look over the table And what do you see? An amateur sitting accross Doing the same as thee You raise your head Wait for the deal The numbers come round And an urge you feel He pulls out an ace To make it a run You hands sweat with anticipation The rush feels fun Looking at your hand And what you've put in You're feeling quite lucky This could be a win Looking a bit eager You show all your cards But the amateur smiles at you And hits back hard She giggles with excitement And puts the cards down The smile from your face Soon turns to a frown She plucks up the courage To make you a little speech That the ones that looks unable Definitely aren't weak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blueangel Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 It's to the chase I understand what you're talking about right away At the end though, it means to me something a little deeper It flows so well And is so easy to read.
