Poetry

"Simple Math"
Andrew C.
Who said that three and three are equal to six,
or that branches fallen from trees must be sticks?
Who says Z is not lettered the fifteenth,
Or that above is up from beneath?
Five and five is twenty-six,
Say the laws that govern me
And one and one still equals two
Us two, the two of we
Where have gone the infidels
That did believe in a universe of ways?
To whom have all my spirits gone
In the final hours of these darkest days?
Whither hast my heart landed:
In the small town of No-where?
Or is it, perchance, furthur down the road
In the world's own land of a lair?
Five and five is twenty-six,
Say the laws that govern me
And one and one still equals two
But who's the second of we?
Where have gone the mathematicians
That sought the last of Pi?
To whom have all my enemies gone?
To their corner of the sky?
Whither hast my soul landed:
In no-man's measure of Hell?
Or has it landed in Elysium
Where most of all is well?
Five and five is twenty-six,
Say the laws that govern we
And one and one still equals one
The one and only me.

Isn't this the best poem? Why didn't anyone tell me Andrew could write like this!? Thank you Meaghan for posting it on you 'journal blog' from computer class. Now I'm gonna post it on here too. :P
