Poem #17 T.U.P.: Better Luck Next Time

 

Every now, and then I'll play the lotto,

Every single time, I get the same answer, 

Better Luck Next Time.

 

I play again, hope for the best,

So that I'll be able to get some rest. 

But still the same answer, 

Better Luck Next Time. 

 

Perhaps the next one will be a winner, 

Then I'll get a nice fancy dinner, 

But still the same answer, 

Better Luck Next Time.  

 

I'll still keep playing every now, and then,

So that perhaps I'll be happy when,

The answer isn't,

Better Luck Next Time.
