Lydia is one year old today.
She does not know the tyranny

of numbers. Some teacher,
eye half-hung on a farmer,

will start her accounting.
Now there's just one of everything:

one cat, that's sometimes big and grazes,
one dog in hundreds of disguises,

one tree repeatedly gone past,
one bed, one breakfast,

one howling rhapsody
to celebrate every day.

Myself? I regret a singularity of fate.
There are no more multiples of forty eight.

The simplicity of this is
wrapped in complexity...

well done, Craw.
