The Paradigm of 3

the paradigm of 3:

1 and 2 and 3
then 3 went on to 6

and 9
and 10

now 5 is preceded by 4 is it not
and 7 followed by 8

and 11 by 12

round to 8 again
5 sides
besides 9
how to get to 10?

well 10 divided by 5 is 2 is it not?
add 8 to get to 10 which is
besides 9 or rather
beside 9 which is
beside 8

iff or if and only if you start at the end
which is 10

and it starts with 1 or zero
