Burnt Toast

It was an omen

To a day that wasn’t worthy to boast

Was it a curse?

It all started with some burnt toast

A harbinger of things to come

That a bad day will soon be diagnosed

Like an upside down horseshoe

As the day started with burnt toast

Maybe it was a warning

From bad luck’s ghost

Like meeting your doppelgänger

Trouble started with the burnt toast

A premonition of my bad day

Started with an “almost”

Maybe that should be bad luck’s new symbol

Burnt toast
