Half it and Half it and Half it again
1/3, 1/4, 1/75th of the 10.
My fraction passion began as an innocent chile'
An engaging lesson taught with a cherry pie
Deviously fractions slunk into my life
Under the pretense of fun and vieling true strife
Cups of sugar, tablespoons, Bing cherries, flaky crust
How fun you are fractions, first impression was to trust
That math could be awesome, engaging, and true
Oh, what wicked webs, Fractions are lying to you
They are not just for cooking, measuring, and such
Later they cause headaches when divided and mutiplied much
You see fractions grab you as a child and place you under their spell
You've no idea how slippery the slope is to torture, but they know it well
Alas, after 1st grade Math had opened this portal, a dasturdly door,
Blindly I was tricked to stroll through and loathe evermore.
