Id have to ask myself a question first: Do I feel lucky? Well, do I? :) Your poems, David are always much more than just skin deep. Cheers - Gary

Heya Gary, yeah this one is all about luck, and signs that may foresee it coming, people swear an itchy left palm is fortuitous, others don't believe a word, and perhaps just develop a rash from scratching at it, sometimes I wonder if fate is preordained, and just appears chaotic, cheers David
