sometimes a number has a tale to tell
sometimes two
sometimes three
sometimes it chases its own tail in circles
like a hula hoop
like Bernard on his first flight through the galaxy
sometimes we become more than we are
a simpler thing, smooth and round
winding off toward infinity
sometimes when you look in a face you see the image you were made in
you see the first sound, the last sound
and the hum of the in between times
sometimes the second thing comes first
and then the trees grow, you glow
the flowers reach up to meet you
and there is no need to bend down
when you are at the teachers feet
there is no need to bow down
everything rises up to greet you
things flow in circles
like a crazy 8
