The Dealer

Deal me in
Our trek begins
Battle, Struggle to the finish

Gather, Meet
In all our armour
Deciding our style
Fine-tuning parameters

Play it straight
5 studs or 7
Or variate
With a Queen or 2

"First to 5, or 7 wins
Two pair don't count..."
Just Deal Me In!
Shuffle...

Cuts...
Cut the deck
(or for some players,
a Good Deal More)
Dealer, house, and bank galore

First hand is called
The Second drawn
Win or lose outright
The Fourth brought

The Brawl
(Brawling)

Our Trek was not ended
Yet all was in ruins
One man lay untouched
High horse reigned in

With unblemished armour
The Dealer sat smirking
I spat blood and glared,
Eyes and lips throbbing

I tossed down my Aces,
Announced a Full House
Back straight and Stormy muttered
"Deal Me Out..."

Mutterings

These two may or may not be connected, i'm not sure...

Let me fly
In my fancy silver bathtub
Let the wind
Ruffle feathers on its wings
As i recline
Look at the sky
And you will see me waving
Goodbye


I want the world
I want the world
No one will listen
To me (or you)
There is the Mountain
Pity Muhammed has no climbing gear

Strap on your pack (and go)
Once you get to the top
Will you still plead our case?
Will it still be your cause?
Or were you tempted enough
To enjoy their lifestyle?
