luck be a lady

i'm waiting for you.
for you to come
up the walk

or drive.

i'm

on the steps,
outside.

i'm waiting for the stars to
align.

waiting.
for the sun to rise.

for a shooting star
to streak
across the sky.

i'm waiting for the wish
in the wishing well

to come true.
i'm waiting for the gypsy
to be right.

for my ship to come in.
for the jackpot,
the prize,

i'm waiting 
for luck

be a lady tonight.
