That is three numbers
above my echelon numeric
and happens to be my 2nd
favorite.
I never thought about why
that from a really young age
I'd fallen into romance
with a 2nd lover.
One that only sits
three buildings down the line.
We didn't meet by chance--
6am a dimly lit haze
in between our
transition from home
to not home.
It's where our bonding of
digit to digit formed
and new meaning
came to our realization
that if time was to end.
It would happen
on the 24th hour
in our 24th day
the final 24th year.
Because to imagine
existing I will always
be a youngster
a brandishing elegance of a mind.
Who understood
time was our own conception
and beyond the end
was an abyss of nothing
that I hope I'd never see.
