poker face
covering a bluff
the all-in bet
intensity
building
under breath
random hit of
chance and skill
cuts her losses
from her wins

o deck o life
shuffled
cut
and dealt
every second
every day
every moment
of eternity
iI hold my hands
play
my cards
and move on
shuffle
cut
deal
play
and move on
and try to keep
a poker face
nonpoker face are my two middle names
feelings are in my cheek, twist my mouth
you do not have to know me
to know me
I cannot bluff
because my face is a give away
you can look into my eyes and know me
I have no fences or filters
God Has Specified
There are certain thongs God Has Specified
Make sure all bets are covered that you tried;
Wear poker face,
Just in case,
And not be bankrupt before you going inside.
Jim Horn
Preparing for trip. Hope to leave just after
0600.
I drew the cards
a game of chance
I should have known
the deck was stacked
your poker face strong
as you called my bluff
was it sleight of hand
or luck of the draw
either way, it
was always your call
and I leave the table
with nothing at all
Listen to poem:
5 Card Stud keeper
David J Walker
All of my yesterdays have been
Shuffled back into the deck
As I draw from tomorrows cards
To play against today
Can I keep a poker face
Drawing 3 for 5 card stud
Is this hand my keeper
Playing against the grim reaper
With rainbow and stout, and an Irish cold,
my vivid recollection — when to fold.
The smirk on green lips - a whip.
Sure knowledge of luck in grip,
as leprechaun laid down his hand of gold.

while the room spins around
dreams and wishes swoosh
in tandem in a mega swirl
one look and delirious delight
releases chaotic madness
a sea of sensations in motion
a swarm of tangents and explosives
perhaps concealed under bated breath
but the eyes never lie ~

It's right out in the open for everyone to see ~
puppets bought and paid for
dancers strung and played
delusional parrots with microphones
hostages read the demands of a madman
while maintaining somewhat of a poker face
It's never been so obvious : integrity has its price.

"Poker Face"
Oh!! Poker Face standing out in a crowd of disagreement..
"Poker Face"
Intelligent, clever, informed...
Wise in your high's and low's forever transforming but never conforming...
Look Up ...make your move using the motions and gesture's on your side...
Move "Poker Face"

I had heard of a poker face, haven’t you?
But this was the first time, the first time true
That I heard of a joker face in blue
It happened when I visited my cousin Sue
She took out the face and said, ‘what do I do?”
This joker face has gotten me in trouble, Lou.
I had no words. The face laughed at her too.
We decided to drown it in the loo.

I amuse myself by singing some nonsensical song
utterly ridiculous, but totally satisfying in a young blood way
I know this annoys my husband
which somehow makes the song more delicious to me
My body is making loud juicy farting noises
I love my man who is totally transparent, no poker face
and the way beanie weanies will get him out of the room
faster than a song.
words of anger and bitterness
fester yet do not surface
emotions boiling over
through it all
she maintains her poker face
in the stench of his glare
and ugliness of his heart
the abuse and violation
it’s all too much to bear
it’s all he spews
his days are numbered
the reign of transgression
soon to crumble
she dreams she prays

Poker face attempted
pretense at being calm
Speech also pre-empted -
stuttering with aplomb.
What I should have said was...
I mean, I really meant...
You see, I didn't see...
Who'd have thought that she was
Classic diagnosis
it's foot-in-mouth disease
a verbal sclerosis
sometimes called, greenhorn-ese
There is no known antidote
no medical solution.
Bandage which has my vote -
lessons in elocution.

Cold shivers run down my
spine
at the thought of you.
It seems that your hands
were created only to break
your mouth only to deceive
your eyes only to con
your words only to persuade.

and somewhere,
I hang in the balance.
You played me.
Your tongue interlocked with mine
and pulled me into the depths of your
soul.
Listen to poem:
I sit here smug, my secret in place,
With a quiet cheesy grin upon my face.
They ask me, beg me, play I-spy, and pry —
But nope! Not me folks! I'm not telling why!
They try to read signs stuck on my lips
Unzip all my social internet blips and syncs.
To see the steely poker-face stare lurking
behind the smoke-screen tease, smirking,
Revealing a wink, a shrug, a side-glance-sigh.
But nobody knows, and I'm not telling why.
I knew a gent
ramrod straight
meticulously dressed
Shoes laced tight
polished to a ‘t’
Vest, exquisite timepiece
Punctual meant
ten minutes early
Sipped tea, no coffee
Poker face, played whist
dined fastidiously
Folded the ‘financials’ just so
No hint of a lady or passion
when he vanished
His timepiece was found, stopped
in great detail
on and on
and on and on
they went
blah blah
blah blah
ask me if I care
but I'm polite
I wear my best
bad ass poker face
my head wants to explode
but still they have no clue
can’t believe people can't read
that big heavy flashing billboard
the one that sits on top my shoulders
the one that screams blurts out
CUT OUT PLEASE THIS HOLY CRAP
I JUST CAN’T TAKE IT ANYMORE

an empty room
and I stare at the ceiling
blank eyes and a blanker slate,
my poker face
arms spread over my head
all I can see are
whirring blades blurring into
creamy paint and
the small cracks in between
the shadows in my chest,
mahogany
branching out their needles,
ebony
one pricks my eye
red ink taints crisp alabaster
damps it slow, slow, slow
I exhale shaky, shaky, shaky
heavy lids droop to a close
and no one sees
no one can.
