Life in Numbers

I’ve searched for one

Through the use of two

And realized three is right for me.

 

I’ve abused four

And relinquished five

I have only experienced six

 

I’ve seen seven in another’s eyes

And relived eight

Now I refuse to face nine

 

ten is in the angel’s smile

Hidden behind, lies eleven

But inside I see twelve

 

But I am thirteen

Deprived of fourteen

I really like the wordplay here, I must go and read it again. Good stuff!!!

Poetry is either something that lives like fire inside you or else it is nothing, an empty formalized bore around which pedants can endlessly drone their notes and explanations.
