One has a watery blue color
And a funny shape.
Two tastes like sugar
Especially when mixed with
A vanilla essence of her and him.
Three is a blind date
Chewing gum
And wearing too much lipstick
Four is the nuptial bed
Still virgin
Pressing too much weight
Onto its thin legs
Five must necessarily be white
Although it follows four
And should be taken with water
Like a Valium tablet
Six is circle and golden
Preferably
With a infinitesimal
Diamond blink attached
Seven is just a maroon honeymoon
On a Sunday leaf
In an old calendar

But then you have eight
With is pregnancy
And indelible weight
Wake up at night
Crack crack
Rub my feet
Ice-cream sweet

Nine is guttural and rough
Bent a little bit over
Hoping for a walking stick
Step! Step!
Slowly
Move

And then ten is like a doh on a musical scale
A eulogy
For a never-ending death.
