Lucky Seven
I want a ten for effort
stop sending the lucky seven
as It will not do
I do not play lottery
as a life to be earned I see them spending the little on dream
of riches at the bodega and then beg at the corner for a dollar to feed their kids
government you give dole and take it all back with your skim taking over social clubs
and school learning nothing as you like the control of ten under their wrists
