Reading and writing
Have always been easy
To me
Unlike math with its F____ing fractions.
Always easy, the reading and writing, except for when
I couldn’t spell my
Sesame Street friend’s name
Or worse yet
My own.
Perhaps I “read”
The Hungry Caterpillar
One too many times
Because my e’s were just as fuzzy
As my hungry little friend.
But I did say that
Math wasn’t easy
It wasn’t as simple as
One
Two
Three.
Love,
