I know one and one is two,
but I don’t know what two is for…
when one is me, and one is you
and you’re the one who chose the door.
/
Now two is one and one is free
to forge ahead, one hopes, to thrive;
for one who’s left, those six degrees
are slowly whittled down to five…
/
the seven deadlies ain’t so great;
nine tails of cats, and nine lives too.
if one’s too free to postulate,
Those second chances may be few.
/
for some of us the sum of us
is a formula to change our minds;
to multiply, divide, reduce,
imaginary numbers, intractable lives
/
when half of my equation’s irrational
and the other variable constant
the quotient rule becomes fractional
and reverts to the principal in an instant
/
the term quadratic is automatic
when plotting lines of powers of two;
inversely, though, if growth turns static
only sole functionality will do.
