I was dealt fifteen so the question is
do I stick with this, would that be good biz?
or would it be better to take a hit?
The stress is high, I am having a fit.
I am back and forth like a tennis ball
with cash on the line I'd hate to fall,
is there advantage in taking a card
or is staying better in that regard?
The new card could be an ace or a deuce
It would serve me well to just stay loose
It's all my fault if I lose the bet
in this racket, there's no safety net.
There is no love lost with respect to this stress
I am no match for this kind of mess.
Before thirty more seconds go by
I'll court the disaster, or win the whole pie.
(The Challenge for this week of A-muse Me was to use the word "tennis" in a poem.)

Every time I try to rhyme it sounds like a dirty limerick so I just write.
