Premium Member Roulette

Money talks. Place your bets right up here. The numbers start with double zero. Then they will go all the way up to thirty-six. What you see here gives you a good variety. You can make bets on odd or even. The first or second half. Red or black.

The House Always Wins

This soft cotton bedspread,
Clings to me like comfortable armor,
Shielding from the world outside my solace,
My one haven,
This diamond in the rough,
In the metaphorical minefield called family life.

Place your bets please..

Who really holds the winning hand,
What do you gain from trust,
Who do you stand to loose,
You or them,
Same old tricks new disguise
Ace of Guilt and the Jack of Deception

Black-Jack

Travail

TRAVAIL place your bets then roll dice twice test the tale of death and life call forth a need for God plains of trust not doubt pray tell us please as it is fill my needs… where that sad heart bleeds like stale sick jokes that form the march to raise pure white flags in time like dark dire rhyme lift me out of my own ways up to the light that plays my soul © Kim van Breda—6 July 2015 (8-1-8 “INFINITIAN”— NEW FORMAT by Ian Guyler)

The Gamble

Love is a lot like gambling
You can win or you can lose
You place your bets carefully
And play the game you choose

Sometimes, you roll snakeeyes
And lose before you start
The prize you win is worthless
Just another broken heart

The dealer begins to shuffle
As he deals your final card
The hand you're dealt is nothing
And easy to discard

Sometimes, you get lucky
As you play your love roulette
You win the prize you're looking for
A prize you'll never forget

Rated R

The movie sounds intriguing;
R’s the letter it’s been rated.
The reasons for the rating
On the ads are clearly stated.

The first one that is mentioned,
Not surprisingly, is sex,
Which, in cinema for grown-ups
Is what everyone expects.

The second reason’s murder.
Certain viewers seem to mind
Any violence on screen; this one
They’d likely have declined.

The final rating rationale
Surprised me – place your bets!
If sex and murder didn’t scare you,
There are cigarettes!
