an attempt.
0.02 units away

keep away.
hide all the knives afar,
stay calm and collected, still.

there's no use
making a huge fiasco
of a hole worth only 0.5%.
c h i l l
tried your best,

broke for the nineteenth time.

the troubles swimming
inside that complex mind of yours.

for a mere drop of 0.02
doesn't change the fact that you
are simply intelligent.

because surely,
you have a gift to change millions.
and help out billions.
because a number
as wild and rambunctious as 3.98
can only be solved by the brainiest of minds.
for what is 3.98 x 23?
and what is 3.98 / 5?
listless, rambling numbers
a fool could only gawp at.
3.98.
an attempt.
but never have i seen
such beauty in a number so imperfect
that it's perfect indeed
for a mind as sharp as yours
to embrace it.
never as a whole,
but always, in its pieces...
