Raffle

I bought a raffle ticket –
The prize was a vacation.
I guess the winner will have cause
For one big celebration.

My money went to help support
A charity deserving;
But if I win, I think it will
Be quite a bit unnerving.

The trip is to a country
That I’ve visited before.
There are so many places
That I’m dying to see more.

Included is a rental car
Which I’d be loath to drive;
With steering on the wrong side,
I may not return alive.

The dates might interfere with
Other trips that I have planned;
And if I’d turn it down,
Nobody’d really understand.

I know most raffle tickets
Cause the buyers to enthuse,
But if I’m being honest,
Well, I really hope I lose!
