Gamble Poem by Rebecca Pepper

It seems to me you stand to lose a lot
When you take a gamble or make a plot
But to others who have called the shots
To them it seems the risks have been forgot
Would I call them fools to act like that?
Acting like they have power, simple aristocrat
Yes I would, in these games all the powers are the same
They seem to forget that little fact, mores the shame
That once they lay their bets down with pride
They realise their intuition has very much lied
As I've said before they stand to lose a lot
Because of the rules they each forgot
