SHARDINEZEN

crisp
terse from sure hands
the dealers work
sitting at the table
lady luck
winking full of cut angles
these purity diamonds

decks chance
the easy of running
numerical oddities
in a shuffle

calming like watching
rain fire past the empty
nights
the quiet corner of street lights

a thrill of wages
no risk
no gains
the great leap
win
lose
and often fold

no aim with a safety on

Life or cards both have a great aspect of gambling and luck,
Loved the flow of words here,
Yours Ian.T
