On The Table

They all gathered on the table..

I wished to join, but I was unable.

There sat the queen of queens,

and I stood behind the scenes.

She is my favorite queen,

for her I'm still unseen.

What if I raised the stakes?

And if that what it takes,

A thousand wars will start

to make me win her heart.

The four kings I will fight

to show her I'm her knight.

Four jacks I have to face,

just to become an ace.

My life is a game of poker.

Alas! I'm the joker.
