One Up

There's a pack of jokers in your pack ...
Smiling, ducking, and dodging ...
Lying ...
Waiting on the perfect moment to mislead your psyche and attack.
So, stay ... ONE UP!
Especially now ...
For your cup is full... of richness and darkness ... sitting steady
On its saucer ...
and if you're not paying attention ...
hidden forces will come in and spill your most valued portions ...
So, watch and sip wisely ...
no matter the sweetness ...
For
your blow on the hotness
will allow you to see through the steams
vapored double-cross of him and her ... Can you see?
I know you got this!!!
"ONE UP"
So please believe when I tell you ...
Your surrounded by the devil's minions ...
Full of unforeseen judgements and opinions ...
Smiling in your face ...
while holding on to your heavenly rise
And
counting down on your multitude of possible ($) millions ...
So please take heed ...
It's not about your face and name ...
For
I'm giving you the key to light ...
continue the journey ... I'm not the enemy ...
I'm just clearing your path with ...
Spirit, knowledge, justice, and stability ...
You got the message, and this is not a bluff ...
Everything is not what it seems ...
So, go deep ...
Because there are some forces around you ...
that you can't feel nor see. I know you felt thee ...
"ONEUP"
THE END ...

My dear, enjoy the game do not keep the score... ultimately we all lose... In this game, we call it life, there is no winner, just a chance to play one more...No heaven, No devils, just probabilities...
