 I collected old dice
      Sometimes they would fall upon themselves
      Like an old person
      Neither man nor woman
      Just falling
      I set myself apart
From the green felt 
      Ignored the waitresses entreaties 
       Till I felt rude
         Nevertheless 
Etc 
 etc
     The Reno of your soul 
     Divorce, Nevada
    Wait, where was I?
         The old dice
        Yes my home
        My family estate
           With stone walls against a hillside
              And dank basement
             My uncle in argumentative conversation 
              Regarding the New England Patriots mascot
        With the color TV on loud
         And grandpa Norrises black die 
        On his desk.
