A continuation of my Sexaholic - Shopaholic - Workaholic series in poetical format and starring me in my different feathers: Casino and gambling - Episode 9
-Gayathri B. Seetharam
I watched a The Globe and Mail podcast on cryptocurrency where a first, Cole Diamond, spoke
I thought that digital currency might possibly be like casino money or Monopoly money
But decided that it is best that I continue to gamble on my instinct rather than my luck;


I hope that my son is an ace at getting a clover to come true in his life,
And he is a king of hearts,
Who will woo a queen of diamonds
And is an everyday Jack who has success in spades; (Oxford English Dictionary  in spades = to a large amount or to a high degree)

There was a time when I liked playing cards a little and doing the casino rounds
And I remember going to Reno with my elder brother and his family and a male, younger cousin
Where we drank in the casino spirit along with some spirits and this raised our spirits
My husband who dislikes gambling unless I guarantee wins from my side disapproved
And instead of becoming tearful, Honey, the sexaholic in me should have said:
Your set jaw makes me become sexually charged
And I should have asked him to wear the sweaters I bought
And then I should have the pleasure of undressing him
And saying that I play for high stakes, your virtue and a definite flush for me;

The shopaholic in me did go to The Bloor West Village past store, Durie Lane,
And buy a snack dish with playing cards on the dishes, a plate with two bowls
But my dear hubby did not take to the look of it on the coffee table
And I ended up gifting it to an older female cousin who had hosted a few dinner sessions
Where we had gambled to our heart's content,
And I had presented a tie with playing cards on it
To my ex-supervisor when I was a research associate at the Dept. of Chemical Eng. and Applied Chemistry, U of Toronto,
This did get me a career in the corporate world for about 3 months and Employment Insurance for about 18 months
When I was an ace at pace, a corporate king's corporate queen living alone with my child in a different city, and my son was a little past the time when a jack in the box would please him;

The workaholic in me would like to make a project of people's weakness for gambling
And rent a Russian roulette wheel, a Blackjack table and a poker table
And raise funds for my charity, Humboldt Broncos,
For the Humboldt Bronco team died a tragic death playing the game of hockey
Which they loved
And in all sports, one gambles on the other team's weaknesses,
But in a team sport, drawing a flush isbetting on the team spirit and co-ordination.
