_{question 1: what is the probability -
the words blur and my
pencil drops.

is this what it's like
to remember my name,
and awaken?

probably.

no, probaBILITY.

what is the probability
of someone like you
loving me?

hold on a minute,
i think i can
figure it out.

should i multiply by five?
oh, no, i carry the one.
that isn't right. what about square roots?
must be the order of operations.
wait, if i add this, then i wind up with this!
maybe subtraction will work.
division?
multiplication?
coordinates. it's gotta be coordinates.

nope, guess not.
i think i'll just
skip over this and keep going.

question 2: if a train leaves the station at four o'clock -

the ink runs and my
quill falls.

is this what it's like
to wish for something, anything,
and never feel it come true?

it doesn't matter, i have worse problems.

no, WORD problems

how can i tell you
all that you are to me,
all that you ever will be?

wait a second,
i'm sure i have the exact words
lying around somewhere.

you and i make us, right?
oh, no, i forgot about we.
i mean, us is we.
i mean i don't know anymore.
i can't speak.
i can't write.
i can't think.
i can't breath.
i just can't.

i don't seem to be able
to say what i mean.
(but at least i mean what i say)

question 3: If y equals three and -

my heart sputters and dies;
my life slips out of my grasp.

is this what it's like,
to be gradually consumed and
devoured by insanity?

for me the world has become unlivable.

no, VARIABLE.

how can i be expected
to find myself when i'm too busy
discovering you all over again?

don't leave,
i might be able to
get at least this one right

if i just substitute you for y
no, because then x would be me
is it even possible to divide y by x?
wait, i have to subtract 2
guess not. i have to graph these?
i don't even remember learning how to graph.
is that like circles and squares?

i can't remember how
this corrupted my mind
in the first place.

Question 4: What would be the best way to solve -

there are stars,
and i am amongst them.

is this what it's like
to realize that all along
you never had any choice at all?

my existence is a lie.

just try.

what's the use of
attempting to explain it?
nobody would believe in my words.

not even you.}

_{Okay, I'm making a brief appearance on my account to give you... this. I don't know what this is. If you can make some sense of it, more power to you. Over and out.}

I like the play on words here. Very clever and creative.
