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.
