No Bet

 You wanted to become my king
slowly chipping me away
filling the cracks with you
until I was more you than me
your bounce in my step
your throbbing in my heart
your stamina in my bed

But I'm looking to worship
and be worshipped
and I know a knave
with delusions of royalty
when I see one

Fold and walk away
for I do not just have the better hand
I am my own deck
and no one gets away with cheating
when playing with me
