You are a decade. If there had been one before or after, you would be my lucky number. I would have wished upon you. You are one tenth of a century. Nine hundred & ninety away from a millennium. Double a lustrum. Double x. Yod. You are flawless. Taste like wine. Are followed by many. You inflict a great plague. Decimate. "Do not covet" you say. You are Heaven Earth Chaos Void Light Darkness Wind Water Day and Night. Born in January. Or was it February? December maybe? Ruled by the planet Saturn. You break even. Break into me. Like a piggy bank. Dimes & many pennies. You will not be the last. Every end is a beginning. On Saturday. On my way home. The name within my heart will say "The heart has reasons"
