    Poker Face

    His face is blank
    It smells like smoke
    I've bet it all,
    and now,
    I'm about to choke.

    My wife, my kids,
    they all believe in me,
    but I just can't see
    their crying faces once I've lost it all.

    Oh man, Oh man.
    i'm about to fall.

    then he puts it out for all to see
    My face starts pouring glee,
    as I show my fate.
    I've got it! I'm sure of it!

    I lay it down to rest,
    as i show my best.
    I feel like a man.
    then to my right,
    he beats me to it,
    my face changes
    and now, I've lost it all again.

    Poetry is finer and more philosophical than history; for poetry expresses the universal, and history only the particular.

    Aristotle (384 BC-322 BC) Greek philosopher.
