Probable Cause

I finally realised

life is like a tower of cards

and maybe you use glue or something

or steal cards from someone else

but you’re basically trying

to build up this tower,

without knocking it down.

 

Some people get married

and attain some next level

tower of card shit,

and then they take a hairdryer,

in the form of an affair

or a crippling gambling addiction,

and try to knock down their house

of cards.

 

Some people build their tower

with love and compassion and

something like cancer comes along

and fucks it all up for them,

but hey that’s life

and any one is as good as another

I guess.

 

Me,

I left my cards

in a wallet

I lost

somewhere.
