How I Feel About Numbers

two plus nine and seven times eight
some think mathematics is so great
algebra for me was a horrible fate
numbers belong on a calendar date

maybe on a clock so I won’t be late
I do not welcome any debate
mathematics I simply despise, I hate
We have to know it though, it’s our fate
