Numbers
By Christopher Munroe
One is the loneliest number, but it shouldn’t be. After
appearing in a popular song, it could make some friends.
Hotels have no floor number thirteen, but they do have
thirteenth floors. The one above the twelfth is the thirteenth no matter what
you call it.
That’s how counting works.
When asked to choose a number between one and ten, I choose
Pi.
Because I’m a smartass.
These are things I know about numbers, and they’re all true.
But, right now, the only important number is 100.
That’s the number I need.
The number I strive for.
There we go.
