Notes About The Poem
Fibonacci AKA Leonardo of Pisa

Fibonacci

I
don't 
do math
beyond what
I can count on my
fingers or lines marked on paper;
oh, Leonardo, you are much too advanced for me,
so, meet me in Pisa near the great tower, and speak to me in the language of love.

I loved this, i can resonate hah. I dont like numbers and its brilliant, clever idea for the contest, i think also you meant to write “ too” advanced. And that last line is soul hitting! I love the depth of this. Thank you for sharing. Congratulations on your well deserved win
