burying a marriage
or a relationship.
It can turn hearts into clubs
such as lonely hearts clubs
or lovers just clubbing each other.
with no hearts left...
just hard words
or fists of rage.
This can cause
two who always
played well together
to be constantly checking
after waiting endlessly
for one to call.
After seeing what
the other one
is keeping on the side
then going out in disgust
with faces flushed...
shuffling away.
Each stack of 52
weeks dealt to you
must be played straight
even when the
chips are down.
Lest those who cheat
daily all around you
