The Siren

119 marks the time
the planets aligned
and God herself signed
off on your design.

1 is when GOATs are born.
Capricorn
was making its exit,
I guess it
had to show off one more
gift before
leaving the dance floor.

19 gave the world
the girl
with the espresso bean eyes and the chocolate curls.

There's more
to explore.
The coordinates speak.
She was North 33.3º
and East 44.4º.
Spin the globe, trotter.
The 3s bring divine perfection,
and the 4s summon me.

If numbers don't lie, then how is the whole more than the sum
of its parts?
Fade to dark.
My heart
screams into the flashing light,
"You are 119,
but you will always be my
911."
