It was zero two
Twenty-two
Twenty twenty two.
Time was off
As in that instant I sought
How I got to
Two twenty-two.
It was 02/22/2022
They said
In five days
I would be
Twenty-two.
Time was off
I knew
Because I was already
By that time
Sixty-two.
Time was off
All measures
Provided no clue.
At sixty-two
I lost all that was time
Except it truly was
Oh two
two two
two oh two two.
And I was so blue.
Did I really want to be
Twenty-two?
Honestly,
Could I ask for thirty-two?
The moment was lost.
I was sixty-two.
