revolve-R

this all started with the prize in the middle.
who'll crack first
eyes shift person to person,
twitch left, twitch right
sweat beads down the faces of man
dripping down necks
a sweet hum of hearts
sound like the wings of the hummingbird
russian roulette echoes in their minds
click, click, bang.
their choices are limited to none

no one can walk away
if somebody starts toward the door
it's and easy shot to the back of the head
all guns on one
and the mexican fiasco begins

no one can flex the trigger
if somebody shoots
the law of the mexican standoff is broke
down falls the last domino
and the mexican fiasco ends

oh and the charm?
let's turn the circle on it's own
one by one
eventually it's just mano-a-mano
stalemate restarts the situation

place your bets, the game has begun
approximate betting time 5 mins
approximate entertainment time 7mins
disclaimer: these men knew they would die
due to the odds, let's just say the prize is worth it
