Life is like math
You’re constantly adding
New friends in your life
substract bad experiences
to balance things out
When there are secrets and lies,
It turns into an algebra equation-
If you’re the source of the gossip.
You become trig-enomic
Finding new angles to escape wrath
Making it like the mathematical chaos effect
(That butterfly thing…)
Some people are your equals
While others are 10²
Some of your friends you might find
To be E=mc²
Defining as:
Easiness = money times cuteness²
If you’re social, friends multiply
When you argue, y’all divide amongst yourselves!

Nope, I dont know math all that well. I just took very simple ideas and concepts and just threw them in there. and dont be fooled by the E=MC squared...einstein would be turning in his grave if it were the true equation. life is like math...you're adding, substracting, dividing, multiplying and when the going gets tough, it becomes a game of angles.

thanks! I just sat down and thought about how some people are shallow or how they pick their guys lol. and poof it seemed all too EASY

I was grinning widely by the time I reached the end. Very creative way to breath life into what many would find a boring subject.

Woo! Math nerdism translated into weird poetry, just what I was hoping to get. Your rendition of E=mc^2 is also pretty funny. Nice. Life IS like math.
