Roll the Dice

Let’s play a game
I will read the rules

We are in it for life!
Hang tight!… I’m bored.
Roll the dice!

A sharp, compact free-verse piece that captures life’s mix of commitment, uncertainty, impatience, and chance. The game metaphor works beautifully, and the brisk shifts in tone give the final imperative—“Roll the dice!”—a lively, resigned punch.
