It began as the GODFATHER OF MATH, evolved into the GOODFATHER OF MATH. Now this. Go figure...

Defiant Poem By The Ubiquitous Hooda Helami

______________________________________________________________________________________________

I have lived 
in defiance
of things
proven by science

Nerve-wracked by facts,
I much prefer myth
 
Non-compliance is
the only thing
I comply with

    For someone with a fetish for Math, this poem acts as if
    it is NOT a science.

      For one thing, the poem
      was written by an alter ego: Hooda Helami

      And, more often than not,
      I don;t think of math as a science
      as much as I think of it
      as the poetry of numbers
