LOOKING FOR GOOD NEWS FOR CHARLIE ~ MCVICKER ~ 2014

With all the events we see,
in this country , and not so far away.
I sit at a table and try to disable,
my opponent, 
who sits poised and keen with her display.
Surly, life is the mystery of all,
that such a foul hand be dealt to me.

I think now, of a person, whose ego is
bloated.
Her poker face now, is sugar coated.
Gathering all of my might,
I run to take on the fight.
With teeth clenched and jaw set firm,
I calculate my chances and call.
Fate I would learn,
not in my turn.
She, 
would take away, 
the ball.
