The Gambler
I'm a gambler,
yes,it's true.
I play on slots
and bingo too.
I get judged,
it's nothing new
because the subject
is still taboo.
I don't criticise things you do
because I am me
and you are you.
Sometimes I play
all night through,
I usually win one or two.
I've won some jackpots,
infact a few,
decent wins
I do accrue.
Before you criticise,
think it through.
How much do I win?
If only you knew!
