Only in our dreams
do we win the lottery
at least most of us
but one I knew...
won...a bunch
took home twenty-seven big ones
great...lived happily ever after
no..twas not quite the fairy tale
one would hope for
but maybe a tale of horror
maybe dreams shouldn't
come true
Maybe the dreams
are truly
what really makes
us happy
Love it. I have also heard horror stories about Lottery winners. My COT is up too.
