roll the die

up one
roll the dice
it comes
up twice

Roll the Dice

Roll the dice now...
hope for six, not a seven.
Crapped out, snake eyes!

Snake Eyes

High rolling gambler
A reversal of fortune
He came up snake eyes

Snake Eyes

Giving in to the writing
  all else went to hell

The bills stayed unpaid
  one room left to dwell

Giving in to the writing
  I rolled the last dice

Two dots facing upward
 —and paying the price

Snake Eyes

I knew'd you was a snake
when I first saw you
laying your beady eyes on me
You were a grifter on the take,
working a con is what you do
Entry angles is what your lurking eyes see

You got dem snake eyes,
looking for where the tongue should strike
You got dem well thought out lies,
searching for the one you think

Snake Eyes Stay

The snake slowly slithered
Away but it's eyes
Are still here.

Snake Eyes

SNAKE EYES
Most certainly, the world could not agree
With how the dies were cast, that fateful day,
If not for love, 'twould never come to me
the reason she put out, so willingly.

Her belly dancing, gave me my first clue,
That easy comes her love, her night was mine,
Scheherazad dressed out in shades of blue,
and made her touch both

Snake Eyes Or the Turn of a Friendly Card

Take the chance and fly away..
 Cast of my safeguards and throw them aside..
 Out there taking chances..
 Will need a lucky break..
 Can a gamble really work?..
 Is it worth the risk?..
 These days are long and lack routine..
 I'm sitting in the moment..
 Like a rabbit in the spotlight.
 My stomach' s turning
