The Mathematics of Life

Perhaps
The one subject that
I utterly 
Failed to understand in school was 
Mathematics.

I could never fathom the 
Idea of it all.
The numbers.
The shapes.
The formulas.

Even today 
When we 2
While contemplating the square root of love,
With 80 eyes
26 brains 
3 religions
96 prejudices
200 fingers
1001 bank accounts
86 fists
32 missed calls
60 moral lessons
2 cultures,
meet at a traingular table
In the square park
Of this rhombus city
Bracketed in this oval world -
I fail to perceive
The lines that run parallel to us.

In the hastiness of a solution
I subtract you from me
Only to find that
Unlike the book
Life comes with no answers
At the end.

This formulaic World.
That shapeless God.
