TO YOU

I "One" plus You "One"
Equals "One" plus "One"
Equals only "One" one two three four...

IT'S TRUE

TWO SUM TWO is a TWO sum
Equals "One"
Sum

One plus Two is a One Plus Two sum

Not three sum
Of the time When We Two were Through
Some of the time
When I came up with figures
At the times
you were reading rhymes
And had add a third lover to
your lines
I had counted
And used to number the
Hands on the dial
On the clock where I gauged the
Time one spent away
Some of the time

And you left
And "One" sum
Once "One" plus "One"
Still sum "One"
'til I re-sum, "One",
plus "One",
Still equals "One"
plus,
"One" teach "One"
Only count as "One"
Whatever sums to two.

Mirvin:

I always like to read and digest your poem. They are very interesting in require much thinking and analysis.

One plus one equals
the sum of one;
the sum of two equals
the number of "one".

Then "one" is left,
so two is now "one"
who was "one" once,
and now becomes
once again "one".

Have I got that right? That's what I have analyzed this. Hope I was right. I love reading your cryptic poems!
