How to Win 41 Million Dollars
Dream hopelessly of generosity Some evening, plod through an alley To 7-11 in shorts, no socks, to toss Another dollar in the lottery furnace. Realize it is getting chilly out as you put Calloused hands in your empty pockets.
Laugh at your absurdity and Smile to the lucky passersby.

How to Win 41 Million Dollars

Dream hopelessly of generosity
Some evening,
plod through an alley
To 7-11 in shorts, no socks, to toss
Another dollar in the lottery furnace.


Realize it is getting chilly out as you put
Calloused hands in your empty pockets.
Laugh at your absurdity and
Smile to the lucky passersby.

Andrew Kottwitz
