Poem Title:
Poem
Just maybe when it comes to life We all of us may well be nothing more than a number after all Patiently both spending and biding our time awaiting to see If in fact our very own particular number is to be eventually drawn or comes up And as life is a total lottery some blessed lucky certain individuals seem to hit the Jackpot Whereas the vast majority of others find they have merely lucked out 1 more time all over and over again And sadly it also seem to not matter or depend either on whether or not Who you are or what you do as a person Be that whether you are or do good or bad things How intelligent what race or creed you are Sex you are male or female How much money you possess or poor you are Not a 1 single thing you can do about it or will ever change it We are all just born and thereafter assigned a number in this lottery we call life And why on earth certain individual people's numbers seem to come up and they are deemed blessed to hit the jackpot Whilst simultaneously countless others perennially luck out Well only god knows which I gather will remain a total and utter mystery Until or unless we die And if death is supposed to exactly mean death we die and we are therefore dead Why would we then really care anyway As finally our number has eventually come up And hopefully our very own happy ending as well Unless again unbeknownst to us our number land's on black And the only button in this here particular elevator goes down not up But at least we are in for 1 hell of a ride If what we are lead to believe tuns out in any way to be true
