quite easy, really
the pack of lies
we told each other
shuffling god
money and sex
(and forty-nine more
to make four of each kind)
then laying them
face down on the table
well you know what
happens next
how snap works
i aimed for two
of anything good
any good lie
to hedge me
in from the dark
in from the demons
the fortune hunters
the false
necessities
– and so did you
my friend
it didn’t matter
who won
