Gambling as a lifesaver

Gambling as a lifechanger for better or worse

It started of as a simple bet,

But found myself soon in debt.

Write your ideas down first in short sentences then write then in order as telling a short story in your poem. A rhyming dictionary is fantastic for assignments like this. I am not a student but I treasure my dictionary. Well worth the investment.

Good luck with your poem

Title —> Gambling Nut

I’m a gambling nut

Like to play the games

Been called a poker slut

But usually worse names

Don’t win much cash

It’s a habit I’ve got

Like hot-knifing hash

Or smoking pot

It’s fun and relaxing

Except when I lose

It can get rather taxing

That’s when I hit the booze

So I play the games, for the fun of it all

It costs a couple bucks

But what the fux
