MATH LECTURER AND

                A GIRL WITH AN “O”

 

Adolescent girl..

Beautiful girl..

Math loving girl..

Ambitious girl

 

Forty plus lecturer

Head of Math lecturers

Terror of co working lecturers

He is terribly meticulous in his lectures

 

Girl sat with a love

Pure mathematical love

Tried hard not to love

What should not be loved

 

From Fourier’s sums and series’…

Her attention diverted into a series of freaks

While lecturer lectured about integration

She sat absorbed, rapturously, in his integrity

 

Pluses on the black board

Raised her pulses violently

She spewed kisses on her fantasy board

Subtracting his age from hers

She made numbers bearing negative signs

 

Multiplying his teacher-ly concern for her

Far beyond the boundaries of teachership

She divided her world , by fantasy

Into a fraction, whose numerator

Was a huge complex number with ‘i ‘

 

Seeing her mark in terminal paper

As a big zero he has never seen

Lecture asked the girl painfully

What is this????

What is this????????

 

The girl said boldly

This is a zero

Zero is a circle with a perfect roundness

Just as the letter O in “love”..

More vibrant than the O in math “fOrmulae”

 

Same as my lips when I say O

Same as my breasts when they are aroused

Same as my longing for you…

That goes on in futile never ending cycles..

Rendering my life itself into a huge zero

 

Everyday….. when I return home empty handed

After listening to your mesmerizing lecture.

My dear math lecturer,

I complete one revolution

On this O…...

Lecturer said Oooo!!! I see..

You are a amazing story teller. Your words came alive. You made math sound sexy and wonderful. You are a skill poet. The words were beautiful and the story very entertaining. A outstanding poem.

Wow, this is a really good, I certainly enjoyed reading this. Great subject, and great use words, too, but...there's no italics (not that it matters).

Interesting poem:)

[Adelia Alighieri]

Wow, haha I had a laugh reading this! Very creative of you, a real smart piece. Enjoyed every bit of it :)

[Randolf Ramos]

Great ideas, to be able to position those mathematical ideas on poem is genius!
It takes a lot of work.

you did well on this. not sure how i feel about the teacher student thing but it is a really wonderful poem. very clever

[Richard Williams]

Math and love, or infatuation, a delightful combination. Emotion often accelerates, without limit.
