Pagoda of Cards

Trapped in a room made out of a deck of cards.
Queen of hearts boasts worthless riches,
Queen of glitches.
King of diamonds questions his title,
Lineage is vital.
Seven of clubs bears good news,
Anticipated muse.
Ace of spades craves attention,
Awaits ascension.
Suit of colors, true to its name, intentionally plastered on the souls of cards that leave the stack.
Luck dealt separately in each hand,
Fortune grand.
Truth in every deal will soon reveal fate that lies ahead.
House collapsing as the song is sung, the word spoken - free.
