Gambling problem? The issue? I can't---Win!!! That's a major "Problem"!

 
“7” come “11”
 
Just a simple gamble-roll of pair-pearly dice
Lucky “7”-“11” black spots-sum will suffice
 
Graduated coins: penny, nickel, dime, quarter, half and dollar
One-armed bandit “sans-a-mask” knew way to make me holler
 
“If only I could win the millions lottery chance!”
Buy a ticket, tight wad, try to your luck enhance
 
Careful! Of word and deed, always---“What will others think of me?”
Be glad to know not; if you did? Might just cut your own throat for free
 
Never actually had it all; once close, I came; then, lost it---True!
But---Knowledge! There’s virtue---I still have once what I---Knew!
 
Young people have it all upon a cloud with no value to show
Elders seem have nothing save worthy value-virtue they know
 
Measure-pleasure counting stacks of garnered silver/gold
Embrace treasure-reality of Faith! Freedom! Family!-fold
 
Yeah! Okay! I admit: I have a gambling problem-habit
No! Not that! It is just that I can never win! Dag-nabbit!
 
My last---Dollar! (Gulp) Lost! Somebody Please! Stop me!
Pray I: Lord! Mercy! Just let me gamble-play eternal: Free!
 
“Ask and ye shall receive.” Simply: Just, knock at His door
One pointed cautious-admonition: Careful what you wish for!
 
Won the casino! Dealt wild pat-hand: Diamond Royal flush!
Create/imagine your own good luck; or, simply---Just Hush!
 
From skillet to the flame! Idiots keep coming to my place to play
I can’t take it, anymore! Damned lucky-stiffs win; I have to: Pay!
 
Amen!
