i want a whole new life,
everything but this.
if you put it all
under the microscope
you wouldn’t see life
you’d see death.
there’s no use for
a risk assessment.
the gambles have
all been bet and
the house already won.

Today’s poetry prompt words were: everything but this, under the microscope, and risk assessment.
