[hometext] => Even though this poem is fictional, many lottery winners really have lost all of their money.
[bodytext] => It was the worst thing that ever happened to me. My life went straight to Hell because of the lottery. I got $100,000,000 when I won the Powerball. But after just two years, I/'/m broke, I lost it all. I bought expensive cars, mansions and a yacht. I went broke partly because of the things I bought. I also had family and friends begging at my door. Two years ago I was rich, but now I/'/m dirt poor. When it came to my money, I should/'/ve been tight. But I was generous, I handed out money left and right. I gave $250,000 to my church and ended up being sorry. The preacher used my donation to buy himself a Ferrari. I shouldn/'/t have chosen to get my money in one lump sum. Now I/'/m living in a cardboard box because I/'/m a bum. I also lost money because the Government made me pay tax. I wanted to go after those Government Officials with an ax. The Government took the money and I told them where to stick it. If you want to avoid being in my shoes, stop buying lottery tickets.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
