A Gift

I tripped on a black cat and started to fall
Knocked over a mirror that hung in the hall
It broke into pieces as it fell off the wall
This is no good at all! This is no good at all!

Stepped under a ladder and on every crack
Opened an umbrella, now I'm under attack
Since I lost my rabbit's foot, my life's out of whack
How do I get back? How do I get back?

I broke a champagne glass while making a toast
I hit "delete all" while typing this post
If having bad luck was a gift I could boast
Yes, I have the most. Yes, I have the most.
