Dreams, Contrasts and Realities
Realities:
Numbers
419 is the bus I used to catch,
From a company of heroes,
Who took a stand before a giant monolith,
And played a last winning hand.
27 is the bus I catch to work,
Full of players upon a stage,
Living their own small play,
Seeking happy endings.
7, 11 and 24, houses I have lived,
Memories behind each door,
Each a different stage of life,
Fondly remembered from before.
4 is my favourite number,
The one I like the most,
Not associated with any memories,
But an old favourite friendly ghost.
Other numbers every day,
Every month, Every year,
All around me everywhere,
Numbers always reappear.
