Playing my last card
Playing my last card
The deck was stacked
I have played fast and fearless
Nonetheless
The game is coming to an end
Holding tightly to one last card
Not a winning card
Perhaps only an opening
A new game would be nice
This game has taken a toll
Should the card be played
Or held instead as hope?
Hope without action ...
A fool’s platitude
