its all =

Constants and variables
Equalities and identities
Factors and multiples
Go to make equations
So taught the teacher.

How fascinating!

Xs and ys and zs too
Combining, coming apart
Canceling, elevating
To let an= emerge
As if by magic…

The world, I found
Is nothing but xs and ys and zs…
Simple, complex
Physical, metaphysical
Personal, societal
Universal, astrological

Lives bound,
Destinies intertwined,
Cultures connected…

Why the strives
Why the sorrows
If all the world is equations?
Is it just that
We do not set ourselves the Right Question?
