Alchemy and mathematical formulae
Can’t win me
I’m flustered by signs foreign
My heart stops, and fear
Cloaks me, if you wish to
Win me, then explain not
Your love with symbols
Representing ‘Eureka’
Algebra or Chemistry
Instead utter six simple words:
At last I have found thee !
****
Imagine,the plight of
My poor mind
Figuring billet doux with alien
Scribblings. I’d feel
I’m appearing for another
10th standard exam, confounded with fear,
I shudder at the thought
Of a terrible headache blinding me.
****
On hindsight, no mathematical love for me.
I speak not in numbers
And if you do I’d say,
More than words,
Numbers confuse me.
Only angels need
Numbers, I’m not one
I’d appreciate tradition
That is a proposal proper,
You genuflect on your knees.
And ask me, “Will you please…!”
