FORTUNE
I experienced Zoltar Machine once
to play the most funny game per chance.
My friend bought that to have entertainment.
To spend my leisure time , one day I went.
I inserted coin : Machine was on.
Human face was shown as I pressed icon.
Animatronic figure addressed 'Hi ! Dear ,
I will forecast your fortune, do you hear ?'
" So nice ! May I ask you a question ?'
“ Please do : I'll suggest the solution.
Assuring I'm always analytic
No blind faith, my approach is realistic.
Actually I am fortune -teller.
I will judge and explain, then to de declare :
You are free to take final decision.
Follow my advice , but no compulsion.”
" I do not study, but throughout the day
I go on gossipping and love to play.
I can make myself busy in music.
Dance and drama also make me frolic.
“ To pass my exams may I pray to God ?”
“ Silly idea, ridiculous, odd.
Oh Dear ! God is not your fortune- maker.
Be attentive to study, that is better “
"Please instruct me, easy path to follow.
How can I attain good luck ? Do you know ?"
There is no royal road to learning ."
Zoltar vanished : Machine stopped brightening..
