I Love You Like a Mathlete Loves Pi
50 Cent once said “I love you like a fat kid loves cake”
But I love you more than the circumference of the earth
And I would measure its entire diameter
Just so I could take the Pi from PiR-squared and make it into a delicious dessert and I could say
“I love you like a mathlete loves pi”
I come to you with obtuse arms and the distinct belief that we are
A linear pair, our hearts not similar, but congruent
Side Side Side congruent, because I want to be near you forever.
No angle could separate the two of us.
Our distance formula is simply the supplementary bond we share.
Together, we form a straight line,
A line that hits the midpoint of our hearts.
“I love you like a fat kid loves cake,” said 50 Cent
And I say “If I had one love, then it’d be you”
Because that is a conditional statement
That is true
And the converse, inverse, and contrapostive
Would be too
Unlike that concave-brained 50 Cent,
Who doesn’t know
2 cents
about Geometry.

Brilliant! You are la poet mathmatique extrordinare! I was worried there for a while that you were going to ditch Xanga. Good to have you back sis. Lol yeah you must be psychic. I hadn't even finished editing the post when your comment appeared. The word "thingo": I wish I could take claim for such brilliance but actually it came from our dear little yellow-haired Katie friend in Australia, you know the Filthy Gorgeous one.
aww
who knew maths could be so sweet! I knew I used to crush on nerds for a reason!
superb poem. sounds so familiar though.. hmmm oh yeah... i wrote part of it! -love you a leetle beet, b
I don't have yellow hair!!!! I DISPUTE ALL CLAIMS MADE BY THAT MAN ^
I love this here poem as it is quirky and adorable.
haha.. I had to do the same thing in math class once.
Holy cow that is an excellent poem. I love it! I really love it! I mean, really, I've actually read poems like that in books - without the references to pop-culture but seriously. That's great. I'm just going to read this in awe one more time. I love it!

hahahah- nice contribution to geometry. My math teacher would adore that poem and probably try to sing it to us. Not even kidding-she's a "country singer"- so she claims, which is her reasoning behind never raising her voice- which is my class' reasoning to never listening- which obviously = my reason not to learn.
Okay, def cant measure up to your poem, but I do what I can. But really, my teacher whispers to teach and it's kinda ridiculous... just a little bit. She's always making up songs about geometry to try and help us remember and process what she's teaching better, but little does the poor woman know, it just gives my class more reason to mock her and basically destroy any and all plans of math teaching that she has. As for myself, that class makes for an excellent time to eat my 3rd lunch of the day- ha.
Half kidding...anyway,
You inspired me to get my ass off the ground and hop back on that horse.
Hypothetically speaking, of course.
Horses hate me- really, they do!
Hope you're doing as well as your writing.
Quite entertaining- gotta love mocking 50cent
or, FIDDY, as my dad would claim..
take care && jw, coming to PA anytime in the near future...?
