Post - it

Mathematical Inadequacy

The black figures and lines,

Spidery and sinister,

Float

Before my eyes.

My brain fails

To comprehend;

It has diagnosed itself

Mathematically dyslexic.

I am high on aspirin.

Here's to painkillers!

Here's to shoving my problems away

Into a Pandora's Box!

Never have I felt more inadequate;

Here's to my self esteem!

Here's to my mental health!

Here's to the number illiterate!

I raise my glass of aspirin water to you.
