Gambler's note

Gambler’s note


If you feel drawn,
Remember this, you’re only a pawn.
From time to time you might play from dusk till dawn,
Your account cut like a lawn.

If only I knew then what I know now,
I would have rather invested in the Dow.
I was milked like a cow,
And left with nothing to chow.

None to blame but myself,
Buy my TV from a second-hand shelf.
Gone is all my wealth,
How I hate that about myself.
