Fortune Scammer

Flashing crystal ball
Sparkling in hands
Tell me wonderful things
About my dreamy future
A wheel of fortune

Tell me numbers
Stars I should stare
Signs and symbols
In night of morning air
Best luck is right there

Endearing words!
Powerful as it seems
But I just wonder
Where do these come from?
Mind or in the deepest bottom?

Send me letters
Get my card number
Think I should know
You’re a fortune teller
A fortune scammer.

the final line says it all Lei - if they could predict the future they would know the lottery numbers and no longer be working and preying on vulnerable people:-) hugs Jan xx
