Washing your hands

Checking the locks

Labelling your cans

Sorting your socks

You call them all

Your ‘OCD’

But you’ve got no idea

What it really means

---

All The 8’s

And so it begins

The incessant counting

The overthinking

The fear mounting

That impending doom

Will certainly strike

If I do not get

This pattern right
