we waiting on luck

we wait

on so much, for buses

to come,

for water

to boil,

for the rain to stop,

for Friday to

arrive

at last.

we're always waiting

for something

or someone.

we look out

the window for the

mailman's

truck,

for the sun

to come up.

we wait on the news,

whether good or bad.

we wait

for good luck.
