beginner's luck

you just bested me
at my own damn game, you cheat!

I mean,
I didn't even teach you the rules, yet
or school you on the little tricks,
or tell you the object

it's just as if you were born to it,
you took to it like a thief, but let's
call it a win, ante up again, double
or nothing, darling

and let's see who's in.
