The Showdown Game 


The players sat down

the game began

The cards were dealt

by dealer, Lean


Pairs were checked

and tossed aside

the rest face down

the Queen to hide


Reuchari drew

and made a pair

Next it was Lean

no luck there


3Gun laughed

and snatched a card

making a pair

"Take that, Pard."


Round and round

the play resumed

tension high

much drink consumed


Reuchari was the first one out

then 3Gun emptied out his hand

that left Lean

wearing the loser's brand


Pay up, Lean,

one Haiku poem

next time

get a better system
