five

stuck stick stuck
once the wheel has turned around
round ground found
a chair is a chair or who cares.

pull roll go
down the chair it goes
stuck stick stuck
and a slanted pause.

grow brown beige
a colour that escapes the gaze
over the top and down to the base
a balance of one phase.

one two four
sitting on the floor
fifth — round ties
to the chair who does not rise.

two three four
curve the edges well
extending to the ground
where the horizon is profound.

three four two
pulling from the two
away and again
stable as it can.

four four four 
and a five is one more.

stuck stick stuck
once the wheel stood still
round ground found
a chair is a chair or who cares.
