Void Work
September 23, 2014
Parallel lines can never meet.
Continue to go, undisturbed, into the void.
If they touch, they break that rule, not meant to be.
Notebook scattered
Pages torn
Rendered useless
I always wondered how Geometry will change my life.
I chalked it up to problem solving.
Helping rationalize situations.
Now I see are your tail lights.
My shirt glazed with rain.
As you drive off, with someone else’s notebook spread before your lectern
Knowing I didn’t raise your average.
Some tests you don’t fail.
They fail you.
