5,5,3,5,3,3,3,5,10,5
    an order, a sequence
      numbers in line
    every verse must end in a rhyme
    steady rhythm keeps us in time
    steady breathing keeps us sublime
      good thoughts and hard work
        keep us from crime
    i go to bed early, but i still wake up late
      order can't follow those who follow fate
      who's intuition is innate
        who's cycles get irrate
          who's minds aren't sedate
            who's emotions vibrate
              exponentially larger
            finding more things to ponder
              thoughts constantly wander
73,74,65,68,77,77,76,75,79,
78,78,78 - chaos is bigger than order
    anarchy is older than borders
    borders are constantly changing
      rules always rearranging
    to suit the needs of the moment
      in a flurry of chrome
        and a shockingly strong movement of cranes
          flying - from - the
            reeds in the water
              to anywhere
                lovers want them...

    order?
      where was i?
    on a beach by a lake
      with owls at night
        watching waves ripple softly
          touched by moonlight
        with a lover now gone
          five years in the past
        memories of good times
          always last...............................142.
