I Have The Lottery Jackpot

I like cottage cheese.
It's good and good for me.
I like it best, as I've just rediscovered, with nothing on it.
Just plain.
No salt.
No pepper.
Just cottage cheese.
No need to dress up something that's fine without a dress on at all.
I like cottage cheese.
It tastes good and makes me feel good.

I have wealth.
I have abundance.
I have the Lottery Jackpot.

I can feel my wealth.
I can feel my abundance.
I can feel my Lottery Jackpot.

I can see the large, novelty ticket.
I can see my picture on the website.
I can feel my wife's hand on my shoulder as she poses for a picture with me. That might be the best part. And I hear her laugh as we feel silly and all we want to do is get away from this papparazi frenzy (which really isn't a frenzy at all, just a simple press photo op... but to us, it feels like a papparazi frenzy!).
And I can see the flashes going off.
I hear the buzz of people talking and cameras clicking.

And then I jump forward and see the letter.
I turn it around.
Open the flap.
And pull out the check.
Printed by a printer, not by hand.
$244,000,000.00 is in the box on the right.
"Two hundred forty four million and no/100" is on the line below my name, which is also printed by the same computer.
It's amazing how something so valuable can be so light weight and small.
So bendy. Yet crisp.
Very few hands have touched this slip of paper.
Which is mine.
Which has been mine for... always, I suppose.
It's simply that the time is now.

I have wealth
I have abundance
