The Thirteenth

If the thirteenth’s on Friday,

As it is today,

Don’t allow a black cat

To walk into your way.


Keep umbrellas shut tight

Until you are outside

And if ladders are near,

Caution must be applied.


Toss some salt past your shoulder,

But only the left

And if you break a mirror,

You should be bereft.


For this date is unlucky

To those who believe

In these strange superstitions

And the hype they receive.
