counting
andrea
i've
been
counting
a
lot
lately
counting
the
tick
of
the
clock
to
lull
me
to
sleep
counting bumps
of
spackle
on
the
cieling
ignoring
my
sex
fiend
neighbors
counting
the
cars
i
pass
to
forget
what
i'm
driving
away
from
counting
each
step
i
take
from
here
forgetting
why
i've
when
i
get
there
counting
the
scratches
on
my
soul
hoping
someday
i'll
smooth
them
out
counting
the
tears
as
they
fall
wishing
they'd
melt
me
like
sugar
counting
the
reasons
why
and
how
feeling
like
it
doesn't
matter
counting
the
scars
on
my
body
thinking
about
adding
a
few
more

I
have
had
sex
50
times
.
It
is
unnerving
when
you
meet
the
boyfriend
of
a
friend
of
a
friend
and
he
says
, "
So
,
are
you
still
counting?"

no reason
sometimes
seems
so
foreign
to
me
numbers
evenness
subdivisions
time
sometimes
you
just
want
to
let
it
all
go

why
don't
you
count
the
things
you've
done
that
you
are
actually
proud
of
?
