Tangled in Seven

old old friend astray

Tangled in Seven

Tangled in seven
The dice tell you so
Craps are your life
as empty pockets woe
Your random misplaced
on a green board of lies
You wanna wanna win
but the game rolls you over
crushing is its theme
The owner will tell you
He has $$$ to spend.

Thanks Bacchus!

My early impressions of the game included losing more than winning. I saw the pattern.

Regards,

Yes! Oh probability in a poem...
green board of lies brings the universal dice to a heavier place
good one.

Thanks E!

Another friend I know from the old days plays the same way you play. I just don't like supporting it.

Thanks Jacob,

The old friend I'm thinking about almost got himself killed.

wow, figuratively and literally gone astray...

excellent allegory here...gambling with life, and often we get so in debt. no way out.

many are astray in just such a way ..i do gamble because my Norma enjoys it from time to time ..we go maybe once every 2-3 months and have a "cheapsters" limit :) Norma always wins (and sometimes actually takes it home ..so i have to draw things waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay long on the penny slots .. but i am amazed at the people that seem to loose so much and from their looks are not those that can afford it ..a sorry day our Federal Gov. took over the numbers racket ... and now on the way to dealing drugs ..its heart breaking for me ..not a positive thing ... too much destruction in both areas .. hope your friend will gain control :}
