Best House Of Cards Poems
I thought we’d be together,
Just you and I forever,
Building our castle of dreams.
We couldn’t be divided--
Our hopes and goals united--
Was a house of cards it seems.
I can’t believe it.
I don’t believe you’d leave me
After all that we’ve been through.
I can’t believe you’ve given up.
Can’t accept you’ve given up on me and you.
I forget that I’m in trapped in a house of cards
until the wind comes blasting through
And I’m left again with nothing
Nothing but grief and this pile of all that I knew
I had to forget how much I cared for you
Something no one should ever have to do
Can you remember? Do you remember?
Those darkly happy days when you felt that way too?
Love so many bitter times unrequited
Two hearts broken----too broken to break anymore
You’ve become my dark horse in this race against time
And I hope to God we’re not about to lose
Futile
Infantile
And all around absurd
Is what this nightmare without you has been
We shouldn’t have to work so hard
To fall flat down on our faces
again and again
I wish you’d come out of your shell
and back to life in the warmth of my arms once again

I've been living in the house of cards
That I can almost know your move
Cause I've seen how the cards shuffle
And how the games have been played
I learnt all this while growing up in the house
By age of seven, I could keep a straight face
And bluff while I had my face on
I had no room for being played
I had a heart of aces,
A poker heart, a true art
That's why i was good at games
Cause I knew when to bend the rules
I learnt the game then the players
That I should never up my hand
Cause that would only raise stakes on me
And only make it harder for me to win
I learnt that I can't do it all alone
That's why at every table I sat
I made sure I made a friend
One that always has my back
The PO£T
House of cards
I.
I fear
the clock
renders
neither mirror
nor dull glass.
Like the Lilly
it moves
and grows
and dies
unseen
by our
distracted
eyes,
telling me
nothing,
moment by moment.
Time,
her only
transgression
is death--
quick,
fluid,
emaciated,
withering and
vast.
II.
I will touch the sun
and every
gray
will taste
my eternity.
I will build
Babylon
with an
edict,
with an
imperial
deck of cards,
screaming,
hissing,
blind,
knowing.
You taught me,
after all.
III.
Prince,
ha-satan,
you
laid
the ruin track
for me,
taught me to
accuse
Love.
You,
grand inquisitor,
pro-bono
prosecutor,
veiling the world
again
beneath fire,
beneath scales
under
twisted mouth.
IV.
We once knew
a peace
under
sun and rain.
God offered
the sun
and the rain
before
snow fell
from
the evil tree,
before acid
dripped down
and you,
you,
you,
heard your name
over and over
again,
and the madness
cradled
you
in flame.
The Billionaire Boys Club was spurned.
On debut night, it crashed and burned.
It stars Kevin Spacey
who’s lewd, crude, and racy--
a predator, as we have learned.
What goes around DOES come around.
This adage is true, we have found.
So many are paying
for wrong things they’re saying
and doing. The stories abound.
It’s not just the ones on the news
who’ve erred. We all have much to lose.
No matter who we are,
an unknown or big star,
We all end up paying our dues!

House of cards, no agent can sell
Sulfuric regret all I smell
Laid flat with quiet violence
By one soft breath of pure silence
Building it shouldn't be so hard
The joke's on me with no discard
Loyalty my own worst penance
By one soft breath of pure silence
Was told triangles built strong things
But the most coveted are those rings
Stand them back up in defiance
By one soft breath of pure silence
Vows it seems, forgotten notion
My breath not soft, nor pure silence
Have you ever considered how delicate we humans are
How fragile and complicated compared to say, a car.
I got an image in my head while reading scripture,
Of a house of cards all balanced against each other.
Then Satan comes along to blow the house down,
And Jesus rebuilds His house with nary a frown.
The more we place Jesus in our trust of Him,
The more Satan's chances grow ever more dim.
So I'm happy to be like that house made of card,
Satan knows full well that Jesus will never discard,
Anyone who loves Him with all of their heart,
From his house of cards He will never depart.
When you build up your house, you start at the base,,
Put the knave at the bottom in a place of disgrace.
Put a heart on each layer with a diamond for praise,
Be in the club where Our Lord Jesus we raise.
A strong roof to take all the rain, leave a space spare,
Reserve a place at the top for The King resides there.

They have so chipped at the foundation there is little left
Taking Gods' Word from this nation is like a constant theft
Just take a look around as seemingly every Nation is at war
Ourselves now so morally unsound and especially at our core
His Grace since lifted with His Name not even allowed in school
Oh how the devil has promptly sifted, so much so I can feel his drool
With our children now unprotected our country has begun to slide
And the one fact everyone has neglected is that satan hasn't even tried
So the house now stands, unborn soaking it's most lower walls
As these once sovereign lands now have a whole new set of laws
Even His Earth has begun to convulse as the waves know of His Way
Yet you it still doesn't repulse "for everyone is entitled to their say"
But when it does finally begin to fall it won't take very long
If you can't now hear His Call why then would you be so strong
Yet a few cards will stand despite what happened to the rest
Oh this poor ravaged land, which once was so very blessed
I am an ace of diamonds
and you are an ace of spades
together we are two of a pair
like a king and a queen
living it up like a pair of jokers
inside a house of cards
this house of cards
I can't build faster
each one placed spells
sweet disaster
keep on building, higher it goes
standing up on my tiptoes
the wind blows hard
it stays in place
feeling your breeze
blowing on my face
house of cards is holding strong
one on one, on and on
the final card is put in place
queen of hearts, saving grace
it all trembles and starts to fall
fantasies that hit the wall
a house of cards is always weak
be careful of the ones you seek
I won all my trophies
In a blood stained dress
Middle of the stairs
I tripped, they stared
Every step you take
Is a cut in vain
So realize before it’s too late
The whispers, the laughing
The screams, the war
The phantom songs
Playing in the background
The world they created
The life you believed in
The house of cards
Meticulously crafted
Will burn down
With you inside it

The truth is there are
“Very fine people on both sides”
(and of course scoundrels on both sides too)
Because that’s the way people are
Good and bad, sometimes both
Depending on context.
It’s been this way in every conflict
From World Wars to local elections,
Family squabbles and schoolyard brawls.
And it’s how it will always be
Which should give us all a token of solace
No matter which side we’re on
Since neither good nor evil will ever win out.
Which means the conflicts will never end
Which should give some degree of solace
To those who love to fight.
But here we are today in a situation
Where something has to give
Someone has to be held accountable
Prosecuted, tried, judged and sentenced
For crimes against country and fellow man,
And some of those deserve to die.
Because if people don’t suffer for their crimes
Then the crimes will just grow
And become an accepted part of life,
The way business gets done
In the halls of power
And on the streets.
And this is where we are today
At a delicate juncture of power and justice
Having to decide which thread to pull
To make the changes
And yet somehow not collapse
The whole house of cards.
(2/25/25)
I once built a house of cards.
At the top's the queen of hearts.
Diamonds glitter, clubs grow like clovers
Spades decorate the castle all over.
Carefully constructed, everything in place
My home is perfect from the top cards to the base.
I am its chief, its builder and king
I unlock its door and let the bells ring.
Open to the world, people trickle in.
It's meant to be a safe place for them and their kin.
Out of curiosity, its first guest mentions its impurities
Pointing out each flaw and every insecurity
I take a step back, then two, then five.
The card house is trembling as if it's alive.
Shaking on my head, each card collapses to the ground
The kingdom's all falling; it's entirely been downed.
I'm filled with memories of agony and pain
Forced to relive it all once again.
I clench my fists, then let them go.
And away to the wind I let my card house blow.
