Me and Math
Why is twelve not secondteen?
Secondteen, thirteen, fourteen, fifteen, sixteen.
And shouldn’t thirteen by thirdteen?
Of course it should!
And why have teachers always called the long hand the big hand
When the short FAT hand is the big hand?
I never got that straight.
Still don’t get it.
The long hand was the skinny hand, you idiots!
Do you understand at all yet
why I hate math?
