Don't Press Your Luck

Poem

By K.A. SmithPublished 2 years ago • Updated 2 years ago • 1 min read
Want to know my thoughts about luck? Enjoy this poem.

Why images of ruins...

In the classroom?

On television,

Everything was all

Until presses

The ball...

Inhale

Exhale

Inhaled

Exhaled...

See a pattern?

Oh well,

Don't press luck.

It'll press back.

A ricochet with a black eye

Or aches.

Something bad.

But, when it curse,

The Doc I'll call when

Too much hurts.

A fake!

Inhale really does come first.

Thank you for reading!
