Among the Hots
of Poetry,
I failed to see
the figure 7
in any color 'soever,
neither with a hot-rod Ford
nor a two dollar bill cover -
nor a brown-eyed girl - hey hey!
But I did see the number seven
in words
(the number of the
words per offering)
at figure 9, confusingly,
among the clangor
and the ring-a-ding-dong,
claiming this to be
the best poetry online.

The Great Figure
William Carlos Williams
Among the rain
and lights
I saw the figure 5
in gold
on a red
fire truck
moving
tense
unheeded
to gong clangs
siren howls
and wheels rumbling
through the dark city
