Ode of the day:
Venture
by saltroza
At times, when once I looked upon a board
Whose drawlessness foretold a sorry game
And wondered how I'd manage to afford
The provinces my heart would seek to claim,
I'd scan the kingdom yet, until my eye
Fell wearily upon a yellow gleam
More typically ignored, and with a sigh,
I'd undertake a speculative scheme
To chain my way through shuffles, on a trek
Past endless junk, through treasures uncontrolled,
Haphazardly discarding bits of deck,
To end the quest, perhaps, by striking gold —
And glad I was that still some hope remained
When, truly, nothing Ventured, nothing gained.
