We hear them all write, =, We hear them all dismiss, <, >, Equal, A word that makes our hearts jump, Equal, A word that makes us seem good, Equal, A word we are all proud to say. Greater than, A bitter but honest word, Less than, A horrible but common word. It’s … Continue reading Math+Life #16: Far From Equal

Math+Life #13: Approximately Precise
Reach for the stars, They say, I don’t know how far the stars are, You don’t know where the stars stop, Where do I stop, Why can’t everything just be accurate, Once in for all? The world doesn’t make sense. Love is not an equation, Friendship is not a formula, Success cannot be calculated, … Continue reading Math+Life #13: Approximately Precise
Math+Life #12: Prime Power
People say, That my supporters make me who I am, That they add up to my success, That they are the reason, That I am standing here tonight, In front of all my followers and more. A piano humming along with the agreement, Of how much power I have, Glasses toasting my success, Clinking amongst … Continue reading Math+Life #12: Prime Power
Math+Life #11: The World Of Outliers
5 inches away, 4 inches away, 3 inches away, 2 inches away, 1 inch away, Almost there, The line zoomed straight past me, Barely touching me, It went so fast and slick, That it could have been mistaken for a knife, It might as well have been a knife, Because I feel like someone … Continue reading Math+Life #11: The World Of Outliers

Math+Life #8: Life on a Number Line
Move forward, Don’t look back, Forget your past, It doesn’t matter, Move on, Move to the next one, Move forward, Never ever look back again, They whisper. I keep my feet glued to the ground, Resisting myself from looking back, Move forward they always say, Forget the tiny details from before, they say, They … Continue reading Math+Life #8: Life on a Number Line
Math+Life #7: Destiny Meets Chance
The walls swallowed the sorrow of the room, The air was still, Stubborn you could say, To let the prisoner out. There was a cloaked figure, All black and dull, Standing against the wall, Begging to be let out. Her name was Destiny, She held back her tears and pushed the wall over and over … Continue reading Math+Life #7: Destiny Meets Chance
Math+Life #6: Hope- Imaginary or Real?
Hope visits me sometimes, When I am sleeping, She comes and smiles at me, It makes me smile too, Hope makes me believe that it’s not fake, That it can still work out, That I still have her beside me. But then I wake up, And I see Truth in front of me, He … Continue reading Math+Life #6: Hope- Imaginary or Real?
Math+Life #5: Venn Gray Is A Miracle
Black is for black, And white is for white, But gray is for miracles, It’s your choice. Do you want to pick crayons, And separate them? As two different circles, Two different hearts, Two different worlds. Or would you like to pick the watercolors? Where water is all you need, To combine both … Continue reading Math+Life #5: Venn Gray Is A Miracle
Math+Life #4: Absolute Value
Hide, The police is here, Their sirens wailing, As loud as a woman’s shriek. They throw barriers around you, Closing you in a tiny room. You run your hands along the wall, And cry to be let out. You know you are a criminal, You know what you did was wrong, You know … Continue reading Math+Life #4: Absolute Value
