9 is female. 9 is light yellow or
soft brown against white
(against light).
9 is always laughing.
9 is vibrant. 9 is joy.
9 is an old woman spitting
in Death's face.
She wears an old, thin coat and
waves one arm around her head.
9 shouts at dogs. 9 sings.
Her face is full and healthy.
9 puts her back to indifference;
all things after her are
only variations on a theme.
9 curls her tail with satisfaction,
like a cat.
9 looks lovingly at all the numbers
that come before her.
She can hold them all
in her arms, like
children.
