Written for TEDx current Cover Photo ...Please stop by main site to experience the entire collection of Poems :) I gamble on I once woke up to a real fine morning Feeling like a million dollars, in cash! Heard the scream, “The bulls lost wing” Was worth a lot less in a flash. I once was a medicine man, a famous herb peddler Saved a health inspector, with an unnamed powder. When he came ‘round he said, “You a registered healer?” “You look like a quack. Where’s your degree mister?” I gamble, I gamble on. That everyday a night will come Even when my eyes are closed, I’m on! Like you I’m betting on the morning sun I was once a fine upright citizen, Now I’m a many aliased netizen Forewarned, I still watch & letch with google eyes Though told, “At both ends of the net, a dog lies” I live in digital karma, reincarnate electronically. Immortal in server space that’s free, How can that be? Someday, someone will sell this closet’s key, I sure hope other skeletons bury me. I gamble, I gamble on. That everyday a night will come Even when my eyes are closed, I’m on! Like you I’m betting on the morning sun Now prophets don’t come down for each other And but for the saved, we’d lose the savior So before you search & stone me, remember I’m a saint with a past & a sinner with a future This then is the gamble & the gamble goes on In all of us, day & night will come (x2) This then is the gamble & the gamble goes on In all of us, there’s day & night, black & white and then some This then is the gamble & the gamble goes on When people get together, they’re betting on the morning sun © Suraj Mani
