I feel many people have been addicted to a number:

The score on that exam
The number on the scale
The number of views
The approaching date
The amount of cash

PoisonousPoet

This poem, speaks truth about what our society is like these days.&nbsp;&nbsp;Beautifully written, well done.

AbruisedBrokenThing

The world runs on numbers, and somehow is also running out of numbers

Payday tomorrow and I&#39;m in my overdraft, so living that last one :) In all seriousness though, nice write. Deceptively simple, when addictions are anything but simple. Scales and dates have consumed parts of me in the past.
