Poems
May 2015
Father To A Trash Receptacle Full Of Potential
Played some scratchers for the better part of his life.
One hundred in
Got ****** up on the UV ink
Hope drawn from the next in line
One hundred and one
Connection voided with a tare
Shackled to the shilling
Required for one hundred and two
Binds himself to an unsightly wealth
Allowance gifted in bi-weekly installments
And out comes one hundred and two
Wins the jackpot with pigment under nail
His keeper takes to court.
Seizing one hundred and two
She departs for paradise
Left with a modest sum
Heβs up to three hundred and eight
Heβs losing it now
Support called in by all the renounced
Stalemated at three hundred and eight
His credits no longer valid with any lottery clerks
