Quatrain of Gambling
Gamble - betting of something of value with the result determined by chance.
Squeal! O, thy chance taker, thy wanton roller of soul levitation and long odds,
Throw thy number out, bounce phlegmatic dreams off the misgivings of gambling gods.
Bless those who suffer, cheer those who gain, and forgive those who swear in vain.
And when you have lost all you own, bow to a real God, who will keep you sane.
