Notes About The Poem
This is not about anyone in particular but anyone can use it if they feel like proposing on poetry soup. I hope I have not taken this idea from anyone else. I surely did not mean to do so.
It's All Out There
Some con men blew smoke
Trusting it was adequate
Vulnerable and uncertain
We gambled from the same stack
For the beauty of your game
Men with no tells flat line their hearts
For a better chance in spades
Calling our bluffs, upping the ante
Some will fold, others will match
We have seen each others faces
Our cards presented on the table
Laden with truth, sobering
Round tables offered many suitors
I complement it, a ring of surprise
For your hand, your love, I am all in
