how come my mind does not work in the way that it can master science and maths the subjects of rationality and the ones that society holds closely how come i sit here too emotionally annoyed that i cannot tell you instantly what five times seven is how come i am friends with those who could easily lord their subjects above me and welcome knowledge into their rounded brains so subtly i prize maths so highly and the sciences, physics and biology and i see myself as someone who could handle those subjects but actually i do sociology it is familiar and repetitive yet interesting theory however i wish i could write poetry about how the stars work above me and how cells divide and multiply all i can say is that i am sitting here quietly knowing all the social ills i could know upset because i cannot solve anything it’s like education left me behind when they saw the boys in front of me do their times tables quicker when i was crying on my own, watching society learn and grow instead of learning the things i needed to in order to be considered clever.
