The Luck of the Draw

\nI didn’t win the lottery last night,
\nNo heir-less billionaires adopted me.
\nIt seems that poverty will be my plight,
\nI’m sat at work an endless tragedy.<\/p>\n
No starlet sighs at photos of my face;
\nThere is no queue outside my bedroom door.
\nI won’t be taking Cassanova’s place,
\nMy private life is not worth fighting for.<\/p>\n
When I was young I knew that I’d be rich,
\nMy fame was sure, my sex appeal unmatched.
\nBut Madam fortune’s such a heartless bitch
\nThat all my dreams were laid, but never hatched.<\/p>\n
But in my bed, and in my waking dreams,
\nYou’re here with me; life’s better than it seems!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
