Poem Artwork

What should I say
To all those people
Whose interests and
Natural process of choice
And force of circumstances,
Which have washed them ashore
On this glossy corner of the desert,
And the shining motives which drove,
And are still driving them recklessly forth
To this forsaken island by the name of LOT?
Every gambler who indulges in giving a hostage
To Her Majesty Fortune is inviting some deities and
Spirits in one's fate and will rapidly go out of game if he
Or she cannot get on with them and live up to his/her claims.

I agree with John. How a rare place in the desert that had water would become the magnet for so many that even the living space for more, is beyond me. So many have taken a chance on good fortune and have developed going off the deep end.

An interesting shape to this quizzical poem. We should never gamble our lives away.
