The latest poem: The Game The Gamble
When Krishna was an adult
His response to the Earth’s insult
Was to sit in deliberation
And dismiss the current administration
He saw the world was rotting
Essential values were forgotten
Entrenched in lust, anger, greed
It called for a change indeed
The royals summoned a match
That Duryodhan did dispatch
A play to gain more land
He decided to use a toxic hand
At a crooked game of dice
Determined to add some spice
The Pandavas were the target
With Yudhisthir to mock at
Shakuni came on board
With dice he was the lord
Yudhisthir was obliged to play
He could not get away
The game then did begin
Drawing attention within
With tension in the air
Shakuni did then dare
He rolled across the floor
The dice that would give more
Yudhisthir took a shot
Luck would help a lot
