Rules and Bets
Rules and me
are pretty tight.
We like understanding
what the expectations are
and filling them
to the best of our abilities.
Rules are meant to keep us safe.
Rules are meant to guide us.
Rules are meant to keep order.
Maybe you were hoping
for different age-old “rules are meant” saying,
but I don’t think it’s true.
Occasionally, rules get broken --
like the one I broke
in my opening line.
But just because it sounds good,
just because it might look better,
doesn’t mean that it was right
to break the rule.
Not all consequences are foreseeable.
if you break the rule,
all bets are off.
