Countdown

November 19, 2022

We can count to ten with one hand

Tie a noose, Ten
Hang a hook, Nine
Fire a shot, Eight
Pinch your nose, Seven
Make the call, Six
Slap a face, Five

Shhhhh….

Three at the table
Two chopsticks in hand
Pointed finger
then clenched fist

Count to 10
in binary
starting from Abandon
through Martyrdom and Menopause
ending at Zenith

And start over again
