Poem- “Words and Numbers”

“Words and Numbers”

Confusion is the deportment of use, choice, and style.

Diction gets unqualified and may not reach fulfillment of knowledge.

Use and style don’t always come with a choice.

Choice doesn’t always come with use and style.

Use may not be stylish, choice may not be stylish.

Math and English only differ so much- you’ll have to count words.

Reading without calculation becomes very disorderly.

Here’s the problem: Math class has calculators, but not English class.

There’s not so many exact equations for language.

So, words have more values than numbers.

But ironically we must use numbers for words to a degree.

English isn’t entirely mathematical, Math isn’t entirely English.

From such conflicting ideas people abuse their use, choice, and style.

Do you want to argue with me?

Your dispute is proof!

2 + 2 = 4, and, “To be or not to be”.

This is why boring teachers are very confused.

Such “experts” want use, choice, and style together- it’s a bad relationship.

Not to mention that use, choice, and style are often popular trends in fashion.

At times students need to care enough, at times teachers need to care enough.

Imagine a world with no care: no use, no choice, no style.

That can’t be an ethical universe.
