Cheater

deal out the cards hold them fanned. put up a guard. look at your hand. play the game. of skill and lies. were all the same, with our disguise, Pound your fist down stand up don't make a sound alcohol in the cup. drink and drink you start to change. look at her and wink. your deranged. She has a nice body and a decent face to. she wants to get naughty. and so do you. lead her back to the hotel. have a good night. she left the number for her cell, what a delight. Fix your tie. put your ring back on. this is your lie: you were working till dawn. drive back home real fast. your wife and kids smiling. "Daddy, your here, at last!" your walk to the next room, dialing.

You create the scene so well with your words it is like viewing what is happening on a screen. The poem certainly fits the title, Excellent piece.
