Wednesday Lottery
Green dreams in the dry desert,
imaginings of emerald
rivers roaring in my ears
Waiting for Wednesday’s
Megabucks Millions-my
chance perchance to dance
the music of my musings,
to escape this escarpment-
the protective embankment
that keeps me here, lifeless as
a parched perch out of water
shriveling in radiant sun.
Insipid the inspiration,
hollow the hope, trite the theory
of a simple stub, a ticket
of chance to enhance my life.
When today’s numbers are drawn
my green dreams will go on and on.
