3TC – Math

Some people are born to a numerical path
Not me I think, because I don’t do math
Miss Pensitivity a math 101
Writes this prompt-it’s a number one
For me because I always enjoy
Using the three words she employs
However today I can’t convey
A suitable answer to her three words displayed.
I can calculate with a machine
Add, multiply and even deduct a mean
But with pencil and paper I’m lucky to have
An eraser handy.

  1. Mathematics ain’t your problem
    Spelling’s your mistake
    Every time you drop the ‘s’
    That’s the one you make
    Avoid my wrath.
    Say maths, not math
    Don’t forget the ‘s’
    Think about my mental health
    Think about my stress
    And colour has a ‘u’ in it
    Likewise so does mould
    I don’t like these word surprises
    As I am growing old
    And here’s the one that winds me up
    The one I find repugnant
    It’s ‘tuna’ it’s not ‘tuna-fish’
    The fish bit is redundant

    1. The other stuff is just about spelling mistakes. You can’t use a language and then just randomly decide to spell things differently. And tunafish, yeah …. are there any tuna that aren’t fish? And what about a bit of consistency? So …. marlinfish, halibutfish, flounderfish and so on … that’s before we move onto other lifeforms …. eaglebirds and penguinbirds and so on …
