What Do You Choose?





"What Do You Choose?"

The dealer’s on his side.
You on yours.
Down to your last dollar.
What do you choose?

When I say last.
I mean very last.
The other dollars gambled away,
In a darkened past.

This last dollar,
It’s enough to get you by.
Then again.
There are a lot of memories stuck to it,
That still make you cry.

Do you throw it on the table?
Just let it go?
But it’s your very last dollar.
Somehow you just know.

The dealer’s on his side.
You on yours.
Down to your last dollar.
What do you choose?
