Gamble

i want my eyes to roll back 

like dice in my head

i want to win jackpot!

clenched teeth make 

terrible cavities

i wonder the flaws 

that i envelope myself in

and i can’t face them

in the mirror

instead i hope everyone 

else is doing much worse

i hope this gamble

is better than my last roll
