I held up my marked bingo card
with disbelief that I had won;
Five in a row and four corners.
It was time to take my money and run,
but one by one, half of the room rised up;
I screamed inside, "Better luck next time, Buttercup!".

Author Notes
Day 25 - I didn't follow the NaPoWriMo daily prompt. However, I submitted a rhymed poem.
NOTE: I haven't ever played bingo, however, it is acceptable behavior. Probably more so than buying a lottery ticket. A lot of the bingo audience play religiously; once per week to once per month. Same people, same place(s) from $1 per card. A few hours of fun, good socialization and small winnings too.
NOTE: This poem is how I picture myself at a Bingo Hall. Hahahahaha.
