Lucky (Words - Ott/Music - Fifteen)
My beloved sister called me on the phone today
She said I hate to be the one to tell you this
My beloved sister called me on the phone today
She said Lucky Dog shot himself in the head today
My beloved brother called me on the phone today
He said I saw them take his body away
He said I found a note next to a rock of speed
It said "give my dog to my folks, Sell my shit I cant trust anyone" "goodBye"
Got me to thinking how we used to drive around
Listen to NWA and steal people's recycle
Got me to thinking how we cut up every door
In the house, burn them up in the fireplace
Got me to thinking how we used to hang out the window
Fish for pigeons and little black girls
Got me to thinking how we used to do dumb shit
And think it was so cool
Hey kid I hope you know sometimes life is gonna suck
Hey kid I hope you know sometimes everything is gonna be fucked up
Hey kid I hope you know the only way around your problems is straight through them
Nothing is insurmountable,
Nothing is undoable,
Nothing is unbeatable,
Nothing is impossible

dean-bean I must have cut Lady Luck off on the free way once. Random things are s'posed to ballance out? I, without hyperbole, have the worst luck at games that require it. It's all s'posed to even out in the end, right? Or is my life proof positive that each individual toss of the coin is independant of the last and it should come as no suprise each and every time it comes up heads, right? 010409

belly fire They said, "You're one of the lucky ones."
Lucky...is that fair? Because I imagine there was a great deal more involved there when her drivers side was t-boned on the 401 yesterday.
She lived...and not a bone out of place.
No, not lucky.
Miraculous.

tender_square a table of middle-aged women catalogued their sorrows of bones and bonds broken. stories tinged with embarrassment and shame and foolishness and newfound perspectives. and in these narratives, a golden vein of luck interwove our stories of suffering and survival: "it could have been so much worse, i'm lucky," we said. 230715

e_o_i Earlier this summer, my luck was in the presence of worthwhile experiences - mainly visiting new places, however short a time I had to appreciate them.

In the past couple of weeks, it's been more about the absence of disaster, about what could have been worse - storms, minor injuries, etc.
