Premium Member Algebra
Whilst algebra for many is so poorly understood At school I put the effort in and I became quite good Three apples being equal to a carrot and two pears Was obvious, for camels are a donkey and two hares A bicycle without a wheel was equal to a boat But take away an apple and you’ve got a mountain...

Premium Member Surfaces

These two surfaces meet in a curving line under the sun, and when the world turns over, under the moon. At points along this line, across the dimension of time, pairs of eyes employ binocular vision to...

Sugar-free Red Bull— because I don't sleep, because I care more...
