LONELY HEART...


I fear that I will always be
A lonely number like root three

A three is all that's good and right
Why must my three keep out of sight
Beneath a vicious square-root sign?

I wish instead I were a nine

For nine could thwart this evil trick
With just some quick arithmetic

I know I'll never see the sun
As 1.7321

Such is my reality
A sad irrationality

Another square root of a three
Has quietly come waltzing by
Together now we multiply
To form a number we prefer
Rejoicing as an integer

We break free from our mortal bonds
And with a wave of magic wands
Our square-root signs become unglued
And love for me has been renewed...
