Good Luck with Long Odds

Be funny if someone’s magic
Was just that, luck of the bad,
The bad beat, the darkest horse—

Anytime they tried to be
Sensible they succeeded
Behaviorally but failed

In terms of desired outcomes.
Things went skew-whiff and haywire,
Unless they were being fools.

But luck like that isn’t luck.
There can be no magic luck,
Since you could say that magic,

As such, eliminates luck.
And yet all imagine it.
