Twelve

[anirbas]

The night waxes and wanes after twelve
Frightmares rise and haunt dreams after twelve

Morning breakfast muddles and congels
In rank puddles of grease after twelve

Expose' polemic or psalmic
All are out of focus before twelve

Discontinue communication
This ends here I insist before twelve

No need to delve further this is truth
Thirteen apostles then there were twelve

Don't con me just lay it on me straight
I will not falter I am not twelve

Red red roses Nir would give to you
All I have are words till after twelve

[artolmaeus]

for me, it is fine
I cannot pass nine
as Everytime I seem to go far
I can break it all down
and fall back in the jar
if 888 beans
as adding it up to 24
is 864 becomes 18
anns then I have a difference of 6
and did not find three
and I somehow get 9 again
though Tesla never, ever
explained it to me as
if I divide it by 8 and 111 can be three
the ways and meaning of numbers
remains a mystery to me
as 9 is fine if you contrast it with 12
and I wake up hung over as an elf on the shelf
then I can reason father, son and holy ghost
against 12 leaves me again 9
though it was trickily severed
and I had to make it all up
mostly because, I'm just not that clever
and if there is need for the old 13
then it's the bakers dozen for me
you don't have to pass the doichi on the left hand side
just as long as it's lit
surely, I will take that ride
Mr. Toad is waiting
for me to steal him a golf cart
and I wish, somehow
I could have benefitted
from a much better start
