Counting

One
Never having
Enough

Two
Woefully
Overused and crushed

Three
Hear birds
Rarely
Ever ready in the morning
Eager for that song

Four
Out of the ground
Under skies filled with
Rainbows

Five
Impossible missions
Vague in instruction
Echo in your head

Six
Injured students ending
Xanax production

Seven
Even clear
Vision can damage the
Environment, hearing and watching
Never achieving

Eight
Invincible fears draped down
Gorgeous flows of fabric
Howl at the
Top of mountains cold

Nine
Inside the mind of
New ideas in an old
Era

Ten
Evenings of loss and happiness
Never let them happen again
