The antecedent and the consequent's relationship grew farther,
a ratio recognizable to the untrained eye,
an equation for an animal to multiply
to divide.
Engrossed in her own precocious addition to love, she chewed over our lust.
Wits quick as a wolf's reflexes,
sharp as a fox,
she saw our consumption of one another,
the re-creation of arithmetic between bodies,
the quantity of space lacking.
Blood on her paws, rum on our hands
Clasped together, in hiding.
Formulating an escape from the captivating beast,
we fled, subtracting one from the animals game theory.
The competition came to a close, the numbers ceased to please.
She went home unsolved, with a mystery threatening.
With mathematical minds, we deciphered how to repent,
from a question we'd never expected.
and a calculated union.
