The gambler

by Some guy done with college   Oct 8, 2009


His folly is his downfall
every turn may be his last
counting every off
knowing every move
surrounded by other players
all aiming for the same goal
all waiting for a perfect moment

Boom!
the cards are down

the gambler plays the hand
everything on the table
running, running, running
taking down his foes

Stop!

Soldier...
Why do you gamble your life
