A fool's last ask

Feel the dice in trembling fingers
douses urge, cemented craving singes
Kisses once for luck and chuck
in a sick spiral mind be stuck
See the dice teeter and still
will the numbers fit the bill?
May 'Lady Luck' smile on the sinning
float addiction up to 'lose all' brimmingÂ
Yesterday's of hopes and dreams
lost swimming in winless streams
An ever asking goad for more
calls rabid wolves to open door
Just the one big win and all to end
thinking reality gone off the bend
Teasing sense to believe as true
a gambler's bloodstream seeping through
Feed the demon one more course
lose the Jockey to keep the horse
Compelling each fibre 'do it again'
bookies laughing at stupidity reign
Line up losers you head the game
there's only stench of low life shame
Repeat reasons and bluffs to all
tread the 'last time' tightrope to fall
'Run' 'Run' escape unstoppable debts
leave the innocent to be homeless frets
Though you can't out run the pain
in destroying others to soothe afflicted brain
Grasp the straw, cage urge to rehab
deaden pitiless ask with professional stab
A gambler and worldly goods be soon apart
a clock drips  the anonymous party to start
