Ones Upon All Numbers
Ones Upon All Numbers
There are numbers out there counted
Six of them speak clear arithmetic
The others use fingers to communicate
Use fractions to escape their masters
Education is required to survive today
And six reasons why that is
Five of them are excuses
Some whole numbers have alibies
Figures are another story though
Sure, numbers will never lie
The truth is; ones grow
There are four things
I just don’t understand
Science, algebra and calculus
Why digits even exist
Three is best
Time for home
No more counting
Two truths
Logic, Math
Ones
