leaving las vegas

i came to win

hoping life would find me or i’d find life

there was

a fleeting speck of day when i thought

i hit the jackpot

so s surrendered to the wilds of the moment

soaking up every steal, every play, every move

falling ever so slowly into the trap of the game

i thought the had dealt

was perfect, suited me fine

and just as i was laying my cards on the table

you folded

leaving me to pick up the chips
