We die
but once
while living
through a horror
a thousand times
We die
but once
ignoring
what our freedom
most defines
All life’s
a choice
our future claimed
when dealt
at our behest
Another
chance
to beat the dealer
the trump card
— in our vests

Cheating death every man's game some win and some loose but the house always wins and if one plays long enough one leaves with empty pockets. Nicely done Kurt
