1 begets 2 begets 3
(make a braid)
3 begets 4
(make a box)
4 begets 5
(make a star)
5 begets 6
(pick up sticks)
7 for luck
8 for the answer,
for looking back,
for a loop closed,
but arriving at the same place
changed
9 for enlightment,
a braided braid
a spiral
an escape
and then
10 which begets
the hundred thousand things,
(100 000 things -
a false infinity)
but which also begets
a collapse
a return
a restart
a nothing
a null
a zero
0
