most people

don't know

more than

the first

three digits

.

you know many many more

not from necessity

but because

it's calming

.

reciting each digit

of an ongoing number

it's a constant

in the chaos

.

coping mechanisms

are what got you this far

helped keep some panic

at bay

.

not a perfect system

but close enough

only a six point four

chance at failure

.

better than the rest

by far

yet the fears

they still rule you

.

you try to be better

but they come back

ten fold

to tear you apart

.

no one understands

this is how

your brain

works

.

the tradeoff

for being a human calculator

is living in constant

fear

.

but hey

let's push around the big guy

make his fears

invalid

.

they should know

it's perfectly valid

besides

you're working on it

.

pi and the scaredy squirrel, who would've thought

happy pi day
