The bones landed on the cards. The Fool.
The Sun.
The Chariot to bring them around
in front of me
so my heartbeat would even out
and my hands would stop rivaling
the dry leaves clinging to the sleepy oaks
at the edge of my yard.
They stand against the November wind
sweeping in to usher out October.
Here’s the thing about fortunes:
their fraying corners are soft against your fingers.
It's such a stupid thing to feel so ashamed about,
To top it off, I then sit for days and pout,
On top of the initial event, I then feel ridiculous,
I can't help if I'm just not that meticulous.
I try my best to be exact,
Now, I'm not perfect, and that's a fact,
But when it happens, I overreact,
I could just scream at the things I lack.
I wish to heaven there was a cure,
I pretend it doesn't matter, but I rush for the door,
And even still, I manage to go for more,
But for awhile, I keep away from the store.
The dreaded moment when it happens so quick,
It feels so shocking, like you were hit with a brick,
Sometimes I forget where my name was signed,
And this nightmare begins when my card is DECLINED.

Unknowingly she carries a threat,
She is who she is,
And your ace is her card,
Saturated and wet.
Disquietude within,
What does she own?
Out of her mind,
Out of your zone,
Disillusioned by fear,
Her dress is duress,
And the hair on her head,
Never ever a mess.
A comb on the vanity,
And her vanity,
Her home,
Threatening insanity,
As her sanity will roam.
Feed her, you'll wither,
Starve her she'll die,
Suckle her ego,
You'll find out she's shy.
Conceal from her your passion,
Your envy will rage,
Bear your grace to her mirror
Cause the show's on your stage.

Ace jack is the hand
I get beat up and I can't
Make good decisions...
Flop comes Jack, three, eight
I decide to slow play so I check and wait...
He bets out... I have to call
Turn comes a Ace and I feel strong
So I check to string him along...and his bet gets
Bigger... I call
To see the river...
Turning over a seven
Now I have to bet
As he goes over the top...
I can't just stop
So I raise to see him bet
His whole stack...
I hate ace jack...cause now I know
He flopped a set
I can't believe I raised his original bet
Now I'm forced to lay down
And regret
Playing this hand has made me sweat
After folding face up I wish I could forget
But it's stuck with me deep
Inside my head
I hate Ace Jack
I wish I played Seven Duce instead...
