solitaire
TO LUCK
which was everything
we were told never to put
our faith in you
to bow to you humbly after all
because in the end there was nothing
or coins or the relics
of vanished animals
observances rituals
not binding upon you
who make no promises
you whom we explain
as often as we can
without understanding
in the womb and in the crossfire
in the numbers
whatever you had your hand in
in the numbers
whatever you had your hand in
which was everything
we were told never to put
our faith in you
to bow to you humbly after all
because in the end there was nothing
or coins or the relics
of vanished animals
observances rituals
not binding upon you
who make no promises
we might do such things only
not to neglect you
and risk your disfavor
oh you who are never the same
who are secret as the day when it comes
not to neglect you
and risk your disfavor
oh you who are never the same
who are secret as the day when it comes
you whom we explain
as often as we can
without understanding

What an atmosphere. I hear them thinking.d
it has now been proven scientifically (here in this post) that men don't play solitaire :^)
Another general truth is that ladies adore solitairing, especially from vvs1 on up to F.

d- you have done it again! i now admit that i don't understand anyone anymore!
Diamonds, L, from Very Very Small inclusions to Flawless on the clarity scale, the best quality.
ohhhhh! i suppose it speaks well for me that i know nothing about diamonds! :^)
