Twenty fifth

Elbows smash tables
listing smoke signals.
Semaphores that others
wouldn't comprehend.
Heavy metal slides across the
table, cutlery clashing.
Music echoes like lead.
Shiny foil reflects tinsel
and cats scowl at their owner.
A book, a card, a ticket,
a poem and a pair of socks.
Fifty two cards separate winners
from losers
but nobody cares.
