The Jackasses

365 Days of Creativity

day thirty five

You've got your poker face,

I've got my icy ways-

What a pair of jackasses we are.

We toss and turn,

Rattle and burn-

Neither one willing to lay down their cards.

You bluff, I cheat,

Together we're beat-

But nothing can touch us when we are apart.

As singles we stand,

Both aces in hand-

Our dignity's stab like poisonous darts.

The deadliest team,

Love wolves don't scream-

They stalk and they prowl, shades in the dark.

I bet and you raise,

The battle of days-

What a pair of jackasses we are.
