I extrapolate the harm
My data
Refined
Longitudinal
The model
A beauty
Rivaling Helen of Troy?
Is a demi-Helen
The new math we need?*
What is the measure of harm?
You know your units
Shame
Paths untried
Eyes not met
When do I become complicit?
When I did math with hope?
You wondered why more Indigenous folk
Don’t do higher level academy MATH
Cause they know maths/numbers/sacred geometries
You don’t know exist.
Who needs who?
And cause
We got babies to feed
Dying to care for
Ceremony to do –
Sacred math
Circle
Rocks in small hands
In those generations
Sunk deep in bones.
