Gambling
on my phone
in emails i've
more poems
then photos
of her that
she has
sent me
the photos
are poised
and posed
but any of
those will
show me
the way
so in a file
named mi
Musa
i have from
her sent two
hundred and
twenty nine
images
imagine
if this file
were a slot
machine and
my finger an arm
every night i open that
file and randomly
swipe it to spin
and as it goes
by date and
time it sto
ps and if
i'm lucky
when the
spinning
is done
i've lined
three hearts
hitting the jack
pot as bells ring
and lights
flash it
seems
i've won
something
extra then
the other times
so not only
landing on
three bleeding
hearts i've won
but a sometime
extra bonus with
it being a video of
my
love
