HIGHER MATH
17 times.
I remember each touch
of your hand on my arm.
No big deal. Not much.
11 x 3.
You gave me a hug.
Yeah, they felt really good
but I remained smug.
A kiss. Maybe twice.
Or was it 4? Or 10?
I'll have to start adding
all over again.
I'm not good at math
so my count's not exact.
But don't get the idea
that I'm keeping track.

When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.
John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
