The Card Dealer

the cards in my hand,the lights everywhere camera's in my eyes. flashing lights everywhere,nervous inside don't know what to do. concentrate,concentrate.stay on task. look at the dealer straight in the eye,don't let up the dealer hits,is it an ace is it a deuce is a king a queen a jack in my hand i have one of those cards. guess which one,is it a deuce no, is it a jack no,is it a queen, or is it king. the 2 hit arrives.thinking nervously,trying to stay calm. i hit 1 more,no and 3 time...and the river reviles.king so what in my hand guess what,a king and a ace
