Broken Mirror Brings Bad Luck by jake cosmos aller
Mirror contest writing prompt entry

One day in 1974

Two events happened

That changed my life.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The first one

Was the dream

That haunted me

For eight years.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

An angel appeared

 in my dream

As I fell asleep in class

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

And was the most

beautiful women

I had ever seen

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

She messermized me

Hyptonized me

Bewitched me.

i had the love jones 

for her

as her love mojo

worked overtime on me.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I knew that someday

We would find each other

And I would marry

The lady of my dreams.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The second event

Was that I broke a mirror

Ushering in eight years

Of bad luck.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

That night I woke up

And broke the mirror

In the bathroom.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I told my Mom about the mirror

But not about the dream.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

She said that

 I would have eight years

Of bad luck.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

And I did

Eight years later

She walked off the bus

Into my life.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The greatest day of my life

I felt I had won the lottery

Hit the jackpot of love.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

And the bad luck

From the broken mirror

Faded away.
