does not equal seven?
What if it's two-and-a-half?
What if
our words and our symbols
our words and our symbols
are only there for a laugh?
If reality's really merely a game,
does anything change
when you change its name?
So, though it proves
a pure waste of time:
count, “1, 2, 3, 7,
5, 6, 4, 8, 9.”
