A Matter of Luck
Luck is a special word
Usually meaning good fortune and fame;

The old adage, ”a fool and his money are soon parted”
Seems to be the [...]

We only have this little spot
In the world, and then its gone-
Then we only have a lonely hill
A tree….and a wild bird’s song
And so My Boys..TURN UP YOUR GLASSES;
Get rid of the heavy Damn Load!
An then go an spend all your MONEY,
Like you found the Damn Stuff in the ROAD!

Present Day
It was the first Monday in weeks when I was not in office before ten. As I saw the frosted sundial of my old citizen ticking eleven thirty, I cursed myself for the umpteenth time for choosing that insurance company. I found out that the other companies did not require so many tests after [...]

I catch your eye from across the arena
It isn’t a look to tell you that I love you
It’s to tell you to live, to tell you the torch is up
The bull will turn away from me and charge you
By the time I finish my next breath
You’re backwards in the air: he’s thrown you over
And you [...]

“Look at this ink-blot and what do you see?”
“Men in white jackets are coming for me.”
“Some see a rainbow and some see a ring,”
“God only knows, I don’t see a damn thing.”
“Look a bit closer and what can you tell?”
“Lock me up quick ’cause I think I’m in Hell.”
“There is a story or there is [...]

One for insurance and one selling tires.
Nothing seemed special, all was the same,
I looked a bit closer and saw something strange,
A black and white envelope there in the rack,
I scooped [...]
