I find comfort in numbers
256 and 65536
Start at two and keep multiplying by two
They'll come up eventually
Sometimes alone I sit
reaching for the TI-89
and begin multiplying
Finding 30!
Then diving down number by number
The highest exponent of 400 until
my calculator renders it infinite
It's hard to explain
the satisfaction of reaching
one hundred million
then dividing by five then two
until I am back at
the base of five or two
two and five
those are numbers I like the most
