Uncertain of face or number
As he looked through a puff of smoke
Yet somewhat satisfied that he was on flight
To continuing his streak.
Nothing was between but a single hand
Held with fear of what wasn’t.
You can raise says the dealer
As he winks to the waitress passing.
Another round for this here gentleman.
Determined to keep despair from his face
He folds in uncertainty.
So it goes he was dealt a face.
52 times he had a chance
A brief look at the thinness of separation.
You had it in your hands
If only you took that chance
Explains the dealer of fate
As he draws again.

thank you... a face or number symbolizes something other than just a card
