Never Tempt Fate

Never Tempt Fate

She would say

It is almost always better

To stay in your lane

When you walk on earth’s tightrope

Fate will always be willing 

To cut the line

Even if you are 

Willing to fight 

Willing to risk your life

Never throw a knife

Unless you are

Willing to end someone’s life

When you throw bait into the water

Always be prepared

For it to Fight

Bite

Tug

Deeper and Deeper

It pulls you

Under the shimmering surface

Risks are only worth half the reward

She would say

If only she had followed her own advice 

Fate may tempt you 

BUT…

Never tempt fate
