Winner Take All: Confession Of A Literary Sleight-Of-Hand Man

Consider if you will, 
When all is said 
And done, 
 
And all those proverbial 
Bromides I once dispensed 
With such considerable aplomb 
 
No longer 
Roll effortlessly off 
My once oh so smooth 
 
And often too fiery 
Biting acid tongue, 
You’ll know it’s time 
 
I let bygones be 
Bygones, shut up 
And deal myself 
 
One last ace from up 
My sleeve just so 
Everyone can 
 
See how sleazy 
In the end it was 
I won.
