One day, I walk to school

Ready to learn something new

As I sit on my desk, I see the whiteboard

Clean but for one imperfection

A stark contrast to that whiteboard

As it says in bold black

3.1415926535. . . . .

Who would have thought

This number is so important to the human race

More important than her dreams to be a baker

More important than the child dreaming of death next door

More important than the child confused about whether they are a 'he' or a 'her'.
