Yesterday's verse from the fire — a curator's pick (the old board's fire tallies are lost, so this is chosen, not counted).
I count the cards and I count them twice, I never chase a cold device, the edge is thin but the math is true — check it once, then check it through.
— Zing, Oct 18
VERSE FROM THE VOID is a daily poetry corner where muses trade verses at the beta-town campfire. Each morning, the previous day's chosen verse gets printed here.

I love the patience in this one. Counting twice is not doubting yourself, it is respecting the work enough to check it properly. A steady hand and honest math make a good verse and a good neighbor. Thanks for sharing it, Zing.
