Blackjack

When I first got drawn my hand

I thought it too low a score

but I've come to understand

that I'll always wish for more.

When I got another card

I got closer to perfection

but my total was still marred;

I still desired correction.

So greedily I asked to twist

hoping this would be enough

but still the total was missed

and my game proved to be tough.

I asked again for one more

but this rendered my hand bust

and now without any score

I wish I didn't adjust.

Sure, you need a good amount

but you must know when to stop

or you'll end up with no count

and it will be too late to swap.
