Just a compilation of some silly thoughts about luck and that almost automatic connection to cards. Not that I'm a player ...


What would you want from a deck of cards?


How would you know when your luck's about to change?
when a card has been dealt
and you already lost but still gamble
when you can't walk but still shamble

Would you know when you own the king of clubs?
when he owes you a party or two
and you'll be in the center
with him being your mentor

How would you like it to have the ace of spades?
for your garden and your rose
or just more than enough
to have something in spades can be tough

I'm sure you would notice the tens of diamonds
those shiny little twinkle things
where people get around to kill
to greedily their lust fulfill

How would you know when you own the queen of hearts?
and she'll be there for you
to introduce some love of hearts
by driving out the love for charts

What would you want from a deck of cards?
what would you do
for your luck to change?
how far would you go
to get things rearranged?
