The number of today’s diary entry
Has three fives in it. My favourite number
Appears thrice, yes, there’s fives one, two and three
I wonder why five’s such a cool figure
Its shape is Arabic, its curvature
Exotic, sultry, fine art, all of those
Its origins somewhere in Arabia
I once studied Arabic, its letters
And the most common sayings and phrases
A union course, cheap, academically
Frankly not so good, real mediocre
I’ve still got my notebook from that old course
Of course, travel nowadays ain’t easy
But I’ve been places that use that scripture
