Two ears, two eyes, two nostrils, two lips

Two arms, two hands, two elbows, two hips

Two legs, two knees, two ankles, two feet

Two thighs, two of other things, in-between



Now there is two more of something else valued

If not by others, then by self - to whom - be true

It is the verses - from here on - it's two ahead ...

To cover, in case something else stops me dead



- Tristram
