Hey all! Here's the latest haiku series. You may or may not know but I occasionally will do a series of haiku instead of the usual daily kind. This one was special in that it follows a story rather than a theme. I present you, the tale of numbers.
why would a number
have any reason to fear?
they can be consumed
in the realm of Real
there is a lack of nothing
naught is but a thought
yet the negatives
live a cursed fate and war
bearing the curse-mark
and so they battle
positives and negatives
endlessly dying
until finally
the king of the positives
stepped forth to battle
the legendary
the never-ending ruler
is infinity
but to oppose him
negative infinity
came to decrease all
one by one they ceased
at their own hands or the kings'
only kings remained
a final face down
two endless powers clashing
a new king is born
fear is but a thought
in this world there is Nothing
he is the new king
