HARDLY KNOW HER

No, I don't believe you.

No matter how much you try to play it that way

life is not like poker.

Life is not a series of bets

and gambles

and playing the cards that you're dealt.

Life is not a game

not a cigar-smoky room

where your fate is decided by the luck of the draw

not an addiction that you cannot live without.

Life is nothing like poker

where you take chances with your money

with your future

over a bunch of stupid cards.

Life is not filled with snacks

around a hastily-shaped table.

Life is nothing like poker

unless you disagree

and try to call my bluff.
