The Auspicious One




the gambler's daughter
asleep
and
auspicious
 on arrival
at the angel hour
11:11

tiny pink fingers 
reaching and clasping
the point
offered
a precious parasol
of
safety and warmth

21
the length of her
stretching out 
of the samsara sea
towards the sky

cradled in cracked
treasure vase
 arms
her soft body
stiffens
then
yields 
under
the
 weight
of
the
world
7.7

the wheel turns
and
endlessness knots
and
in
 the 
end
the daughter
makes
her 
own
luck






Inspired by the prompt "numbers"
