The Two in Twenty

Oh, eighth numbers to twenty

Twelve is feeble

Harmless as it is arrowless

That’s when the 1 is backing up the 2

To represent twelve

The 1 looks Charming as a leader

And youthful as it is

Look up without sorrow

Pinning down life’s greatest treasure

8 years later

Twenty is quite shameful

How do you put 2 first so suddenly and replace 1

So arroga tly to represent your age

All those thirst of a properly imagined life

When dreaming used to be much less draining

Suddenly became horror

When nothing seemed to align anymore

And your face tired

Your time passed

And yet not one ounce of your cells

Felt anything better than before

You will be stuck with the tilting glimpse

Of a sudden 2 in twenty

I want to erase the vile 2, and just left Ir be zero

Let me be nonexistent
