12 FINALLY ARRIVES

cornered by Pi
at the party listening to
a stream of never ending decimals

"Polygon?"
"Yeah, mate
ya just missed her!"

feeling a bit obtuse
wanting but unable to
chat up that cute angle

a group of isosceles triangles
throwing shapes
on the dance floor

a tipsy triangle
spills her drink
over a square

numbers
in their prime
strut their funky stuff

"Why....hic...why"
argues 4 drunkenly with 5
"...can't I came after you!

a decahedron
taps the mike
"Eh...1...2...1...2!"

1 & 2
don't notice nobody
French kissing on the dance floor

leaning up against the wall
a very very drunk
right angle

123 wolf whistles
as ABC slinks
suggestively by

123 asks ABC
for her number
"I don't give out my digits ..seen?"

at the Infinity Disco
the parallel lines
finally meet

"Forgive me for saying so but( hic! )
the squares on your hypotenuse are equal to..."
she slaps him across the face

Sine and Co-Sine
passed out
in the same corner

"My field is trigonometry!"
boasts Tan
"What's your star sign?"

a cornered circle
listens to a bore
telling her "It's hip to be square!"

12 finally arrives
everyone goes berserk
'HAPPY NEW MATH!"
