I shout "One! Two! Three!..."
with my hands over my face.
I peek between my fingers,
you are walking back and forth.

I shout "A hundred!"
as my feet take flight, looking
under tables,
beside gates,
behind bashes,
and above clouds.

I shout "Where are you?"
but my eyes do not answer.
I sit down and wonder
if it is still my turn.
