Numbers
Numbers
It is all about the numbers,
the ones and the zeros,
put together and torn apart,
sharply counted out loud.
Take a ticket,
what does it say?
What is your number,
today?
What will it be,
tomorrow?
Your birth,
your phone,
your life...
recorded and measured
by numbers,
in lines of fives and tens.
Being young
and growing old,
be bold,
and count on.
The score too high
to be gauged,
or calculated,
if blessed by heaven,
and then...
Counting
1,2 and three
you need to see,
we are not numbered at all.
We are taller than that.
We are shorter too.
We are you,
and me and us.
Unique...
and only,
one.
