I Can Count To Ten!A Poem by Michael StevensIt's a BIG day, yes sir, a BIG day!
I don't want to brag, but I can count to ten, without training wheels for the signals it sends
to my brain--for those of you hard of hearing, I'll say that again. I CAN COUNT TO TEN--I fought the numbers battle, and I did win!
I know I'm ten plus ten plus ten plus ten plus ten, plus three, but give me a break, yes, a break is due for me,
for I've been trying to get here since I was a wee lad, for at anything math-related, I'm terribly sad!
I've been told that in mathematics, I'm a little behind. Anytime 'little' and 'behind' are used and combined,
in a description of me, well, I'll count that as good news. Hey, don't judge me until you've walked in my shoes!
I won't say 'a mile' because I can't make it that far. Just to change my mind, I'll hop in the car!
So, as you can imagine, I'm partying hardy because, as you can see, I ain't so damn sorry!
