ME,OBAMA,& THE LOTTERY...

I HAD A DREAM THE OTHER NIGHT THAT
OBAMA STOPPED BY. HE MADE HIMSELF
COMFORTABLE RECLINING ON THE SOFA.

I HAVE A FEW OF HIS AUTOGRAPHS AND
I ASKED HIM WERE THEY REAL. BECAUSE
A LOT OF FAKES ARE BEING SOLD ON EBAY.
HE STARTED LAUGHING LOOKING AT THEM, AND
SAID MAYBE 1 WAS REAL OUT THE BUNCH.
I DIDN'T FALL APART BECAUSE I KNEW I WAS
GOING TO GET A REAL ONE.

HE WENT BACK AND LAYED DOWN ON THE SOFA,
AND ASKED ME IF I'D GO TO THE STORE HE
WANTED A CAN OF OLD ENGLISH 800.
BOY THAT STUFF IS NOT BEER I THINK IT'S
PART WHISKEY. I REMEMBER AS A TEEN TRYING
IT, NEXT THING YOU KNOW I WAS IN THE FRONT
YARD RUNNING AROUND DOING FLIPS.I WAS
PUNISHED AND HAD TO STAY IN MY ROOM ALL DAY,
WITH 4 OTHER OFFENDERS.

BUT A DEVASTATING SECRET CAME OUT IN THE
FAMILY THAT DAY.
DRUNK TEENS DON'T HAVE THE
EQUIPMENT TO REALIZE,THAT
"LOOSE LIPS SINK SHIPS."

OKAY BACK TO THE DREAM
ANYWAY HE GAVE ME 1.90 ON THE DOT.
I NEVER MADE IT TO THE STORE BECAUSE
I COULDN'T FIND MY SHOES.
AREN'T DREAMS A TRIP? MY DREAMS ARE
MORE EXCITING THAN MY LIFE.

MAYBE SOMEDAY I'LL SHARE WITH YOU
THE DREAM WHERE I'M SHOPPING WITH
MICHAEL JACKSON.

WHEN I WOKE UP I REMEMBERED THE NUMBERS
800 &190, I NEVER REMEMBER NUMBERS IN DREAMS.

FIRST THING I THINK OF IS THE DAILY THREE ,ONE
OF OUR MANY LOTTERY GAMES.
I RAN OUT TO PLAY THEM EXCITED THAT THIS
WAS EASY MONEY BABY! YES I WALK THROUGH
LIFE WEARING ROSE COLORED GLASSES.

F##k,F##K,F##k, I'LL BE DAMN IF 900 DIDN'T
COME IN. NOW I'M STUCK PLAYING THAT SET
OF NUMBERS UNTIL THEY DO COME IN.

BECAUSE THE MINUTE I DON'T PLAY THOSE
NUMBERS THEY'LL COME IN, AND I'LL GO INTO A STATE
OF DEPRESSION UNTIL I FINALLY DECIDE TO JUMP
OFF A BRIDGE.

AND ON TOP OF THAT I HAVE TO WONDER IF MY
OBAMA AUTOGRAPHS ARE REAL.
WHY IS LIFE SO COMPLICATED?
MAYBE IT'S TRUE WHAT THIS OLD MAN,
ONCE TOLD ME IN MY TEENS.
