A Foolhardy Gamble, a Life Altered - Stream of Consciousness

  • he put it all in
    all in on one
    one single number
    one mistake
    changed forever

  • the care given
    to his earnings
    was incredible
    for a man so desperate
    to lose

  • a trash bet
    he knew it was
    but he took the risk
    and knew the consequences

  • everything changed
    from then on
    all taken away
    his life was used up

  • but in this darkness
    a truth
    revealed itself
    to him
    deep in sleep
    he knows what to do

  • embracing the changes
    he became a great leader
    and taught ourselves
    the pitfalls
    of his gamble.
