In a poem of any length...
use the numbers 10-1 (counting down in order) as a part of the lines.
the next person counts forward from 1-10 and so on and so forth, 10-1 and then 1-10.
I'll start it off so you can see what I mean.
enjoy!

10 dollars and a cup
purchase temporary salvation
drowning each of the 9 lives in
8 shot glasses
full of seagrams 7
insomniac, praying for the 6 o'clock sunrise
add a 5th of vodka to the equation
to further blur the eyes
lying prostrate, on bended knees
with palms to the sky
calling to the 4 corners in supplication
with tears in the 3rd eye
awaiting morning in mourning
because in the darkness
i dream of 2
and remember that now there's
only 1.
...and that's not much without you.

One moment please.
I could have sworn I've seen you two
loving the glow of each other.
So three's a company
and I'm no longer an interest
until we turn this bicycle into a car,
Until I find the fourth.
I guess five more minutes
six seconds, and No.
I'll wait no longer.
Seven Wonders of the World
and what of the eighth?
Ignorance.. wishful thinking..
Where is she?
Nine inch nails clawing like a cat.
Fingers like daggers.
I can't think of Ten reasons why I'd want that.
So I guess it's just me and you buddy..

If the 10 days we spent
laying in bed never happened,
and the 9 nights we never
slumbered were ideal dreams
I'd be caught in the web
of your 8 legs, weeping
& finding rest in solitude
on the 7th day
dreaming of a half-dozen
poems I wrote
about the 5 fingers I held
in mine, the 4 limbs
tattooed by my tongue -
3 times you sighed before
waking in my arms,
and when we were the two
that knew what it meant
to really love
one another.
can I kick it?
One person,
suffering in two lives.
They breathe the air,
of a third world tragedy.
Burning every tree,
touching the four corners of Earth.
They close their eyes,
and countdown from five.
But Jesus mumbles six,
so they re-think everything.
It's Christmas and your alone,
with seven dead angels outside.
The clock strikes eight,
your the ninth wonder of the world.
This isn't the life you want,
misery, confusion and pain.
So countdown from ten,
and pray that it's not too late.
fish conspiring with the ocean numbered ten
stamped, and swindled by nine queens,
with eight long legs to drag freaks
they're judged for sins, the deadly seven
six the cure, but an ultra violet execution
korben saves the five elements for dallas
covering up alaska's fourth kind
heretic of the trinity, a parastic blade
note: two lives intertwine in love books
to rule them is one name him lord
^^ all lines relate to films
Words are always getting conventionalized to some secondary meaning.
now i have only 1 bullet loaded
2 guns with no clue whos dangerous
taking 3 steps backwards
dust kicked up from 4 feet
ive only got 5 seconds to draw
the 6th second hits and im shocked
my grips closed on 7 pounds
resting in its holster,my eyes point up
8 limbs rest in the dirt
i counted 9 breaths before death
10 sherrifs stopped the wild west draw
so much for solving a pokers loosing hand cowboys!!

10 minutes pass and nothing...
ink suddenly spills upon my paper
9 ideas clawing and scratching
writhe in my brain to be
dominant, over the other 8 but...
too late, they're all discarded
I curse at myself and...
Driving to the 7-11 I realize...
I've never truly composed a poem
6 have previously been worked on...
They were all thrown away, stupid
Pensively, I wonder what is better
Should the 5 finger discount be employed...
Should the employed worker catch me
I can think of 4 ways to elude him
$3.21 isn't enough to risk this for
2 men exchange money and item
Lonely as I wonder aimlessly back...
1 last day of mediocrity...
I say again
"A Poem can curve
Like the bell of a tulip
Or a pistol grip"

You could label me a
Tin man with no gusto, but I'd say nine(no)
I'm just a softy at heart who lost his spark
Through out my journey I've encountered monsters who ate portions of my sanity
but I can't cease venturing down my path
That's why I grew a sick sense of humor otherwise I'd never laugh
In this life I've realized you must learn from the past but never look back
And you should always use ample time to think before you act
Guess now I understand the reason for this labyrinth: Ree(to sift)
between the lovers and haters liars and thieves
Too many like me, easily swayed from what they believe
when you realize you've already won, then you'll finally be free.
