/ jump /

sheep always count People

in their sleep /

the number in front

the amount behind /

a quizzical fingering

held up /

to the eye

in a sycophant blind /

to better gauge

in which direction /

the wind ?

and where ?

oh where?

the backside ?

of the line?

in keeping with a

soporific mind /

the end goal

the genuine 

leathered 

hide /

and

patented idiot

question:

“How High?”

that bids the 

conscience:

“Goodnight!”
