Math.

You either have it on your side

Or you don’t.

Whatever numbers you are working with,

It’s never going to add up to anything other than the sum of its parts.

You can wishful think

You can squint your eyes, look sideways at the equation and if you like,

You can stand on your head to get a different perspective

But math has a way of being perniciously indifferent to how you approach the solution

And as the ballot counting continues in America

Millions await the fate of a nation

Now at the mirthless mercy of math.

But don’t blame the math!

After all without math we couldn’t bring you
