Fortune favours the brave, no!
Fortune favours the bold, no!
Fortune favours the old
and greedy; snakes slithering
down slippery slopes
leaving offspring tossing snowballs
aimlessly at fortunes passed
to others, at love wasted
on black holes hovering
above the treetops
of a burnt down forest;
Fortune favours nobody
deserving a break, nobodies
roam this earth only wanting
what’s fair. No —
fortune favours the old and greedy,
the ones least deserving.
