Fortunately, Unfortunately

Fortunately, I bought a computer today,
Unfortunately, it had a virus.

Fortunately, a technician fixed it,
Unfortunately, I had to sell my computer to pay the bill.

Fortunately, I bought a dog with the money I had left over.
Unfortunately, it had rabies.

Fortunately, a vet gave him a shot,
Unfortunately, he had to be put to sleep because of old age.

    Great write. It's sad sometimes the way things turn out. That's some tough luck though. I like the way you worded it, "Fortunately...Unfortunately." Keep up the great work, and I look forward to reading more of your stuff.

    Not exactly poetry, but still interesting. With some work, I bet you could make it twice as long and twice as funny. gj.

    This was so cool, bright side, dark side, it was like "Whoaa look out!" he he he he he I loved this line "Fortunately I bought a dog with the money I had left over. Unfortunately, it had rabies." I can just see a person selling his computer then getting a dog with rabies! This was some funny stuff! Frohliche Weihnachten! meaning Merry Christmas! Good job!
