Gambling with Grandma
Underneath the Pioneer Casino's gourmet buffet
In Lauglin, Nevada on the Colorado 
Having absconded with Church funds
A fully corrupt former NYC poetry administrator
Betting five quarters a hand and losing steadily
Until a machine throws me four twos 
And four hundred quarters pour into my plastic cup 
Ten minutes before we drive back to Needles
