It seems unsolvable Completely Improbable An equation With no answer They tell me to add pounds But they add more doubt Subtract self-hate But all I do Is lose myself in the problem Beauty standards? I’m on the bottom I’m a fraction Denominated by ideals of Perfection Numerated by my Own demons Like pi I’m irrational However I am not infinite Only temporary Average me out Calorie count Weight in pounds Calculate the BMI But My Inverse Operation Can’t be ignorable Trying to find a semblance Of self control Factor it out Solve for x What piece Of the puzzle Did they forget When they wrote my Problem Keep subtracting I’m shrinking Prime number Divide me By my own weight Half of a person Less than the other Negative exponent In a positive Expression Graph it out Linear equation You don’t need A computer To see the Decrease in Motivation 3D? More like 2 dimensions Paper thin with Pencil markings Multiple choice? More like multiple guess Balance the scale Life is a short answer question Sum it up In a few words It’s the beauty equation

The Beauty Equation
