How do I love thee? Let me count the ways Not a finger shall I straighten In my computation As I recount my lamentation At the havoc that you wrought No calculator needed As I reconcile my thesis Such low number needs no genius Nor exertion of my thought For such a pitiable sum Is understood by deaf and dumb Neither finger nor my thumb Nor mathematics bureau Should be dispatched to this cause In simple algebraic laws With your love so full of flaws My counting is rested now at zero

Hard-hitting; Slowly it courses through me, Burning, bit by bit; Heightening feelings, numbing inhibitions. Light headed, heavy hearted, I sway; Every step unsure. Blurred thoughts, tunneled vision. It helps, escaping. For just a few hours maybe. Escaping, The neverending chaos that life presents, My current reality. Helps forgetting, Emotions I cannot comprehend, A world so baffling. A few (many) shots of neat green apple *****
