When's My Luck Gonna Change

 

There aren't enough miracles

to divvy up.

 

Sometimes

this frustrates the angels.

 

They'd like to build a motor

that rewinds chances, swing

 

a wrecking ball at the vertebrae

of bad luck,

 

but they aren't industrial;

they just sing.

 

I'm not complaining. They're nice hosts,

but what can they do?

 

Storms blast. The sky goes on.

They wish us well.
