Incorrigible Lottery Dreamer

CATEGORY

first love

Views: 150

(randomly drawn

years gone by

without gifted with

pipe dream pot of gold)

 

Paradise visage and eyes

a bulge with dollar signs

whetted imagination

PowerBall ticket bought

 

expected usual outcome

after next drawing

to yield monetary naught

temptation

for instant millions

 

human foible to reach

elusive pot of gold

streak of universal desire

potential riches

overtook rational self

delusions

of grandeur caught

 

aloud, enabled

and provided flirtation

illusory fate

to experience rich draught

envisioned emancipation

nondenominational penury

distant battle fought

attacking hard scrapple

existence wrought!

 

At core

precious legal

tender chronically

short supply within

this (then) family of four

though hard times,

eye desired at least


another son or daughter

urge (long

silenced this ram

ewe who)

vehemently didst roar

boot budding young girls


I whole-heartedly

loved and adored,

who rushed into

opened arms,

whenever back

from trivial pursuits

nearly squeezing

out digested gore,

when casually

and nonchalantly

turned key

to open front door

akin to finest

crafted clock work

sounding time of day

they danced

and frolicked

like kittens or puppies

bringing news

paper and/or

dem golden

(ha) slippers

sharing silly concocted

faux pa lore

 

inviting me to play

make believe

games on floor

enjoying revelry

without keeping score

yet…creating memories

I forever store!

 

Financial straits

made unsettled

existence hand to mouth

fantastically generated

grandiose aspirations

successful life

frequently headed south.

 

Creative endeavors

found excitement

and linguistic pleasure

thru attempt to pry poem

or prose from mind

deliberated semblance

to communicate


and extract idea

from cranial rind

words

synchronized suitably

in poetic

third eye bind

readers may

espy hidden puns

within rhyme lined

with challenges

or commiserate


and complement

via words of

positive kind

although large

sum of money

would be dog send

delivered by one


blessed angel in disguise

redemption

and salvation

rued bing

considerate regarding

thankful escape

out thumb poverty dust grind.

 

Much rather be cursed

with excess wealth

deliverance to life,

liberty and mental health

depravity foreign concept

never to rue by stealth,

nor can money buy spiritual wealth!
