Sense Sonnet - Chiller

 Russian Roulette

The game of Russian roulette,

Most often played by players male

Who are into some macho biz

Of taking a chance on the scale

Of five out of six chambers in

A revolver, empty of shot,

Giving the cylinder a spin,

Odds good the loaded chamber's not

The one a pulled trigger will fire,

To that macho player's relief.

But fateful firing does transpire

To the shot macho player's grief.

However the game is resolved,

Alcohol is often involved.
