That would mean that you'd would pass by each other really fast?? L3 doesnt make sense.

Thats perpendicular, right???

Ah, that didnt come out right at all ; ____

Ah, fuck it!

Did you just take 5th grade math or something? Or maybe there is a hidden meaning that the untrained eye cannot see. You'll have to get back at me on this one. ( Sorry for the insult.)
— tyleroglesby
Oh, simple and just right!
— Isabelle5
ll <-- parallel
L <-- perpendicular
— CantTell
+ perpendicular
- _ Horizontal
l vertical
— CantTell
it makes sense.
two paths meeting explains perpendicular. there are two ways you can look at horizontal.
either way: i like this.
— youthculture
My maths was right!! Tahts what I was trying to do. But if your paths are perpendicular wont you just pass by each other??
— MFine
It doesn't make sence. Perpendicular lines don't meet. But I guess they do 'run together'.
— CantTell
perpendicular lines intersect. paths intersecting?
get it?
— unknown
Yes they intersect, but then keep going and move in different directions!!!
Im assuming you want to stay with this person, sorry I djust cant see it making sense, Im not sure if Im right or stupid!!
— MFine
ROFLCOPTER!!!!!!!!111

I read this as paths that have meandered apart will come close again, going in the same direction. If I'm the only one who gets the horizontal part....blush!
— Isabelle5
hey kids,
horizontal=sex
— unknown
its about having a long distance lover and being horny right now
— unknown
I took this as "I hope we meet up and fuck again"
— InMyBlood
Kind of clever
— unknown
simple and sweet. more people should rate this!
— unknown
inmyblood is right. god you peepul make stuf so complicificatorated sometimes. :)
perpendicular can have 2 meanings here but one is more than you need.
— noodleman
poetry is about playing with words. complication has nothing to do with it whatsoever
— Xiada
i cant believe some people here dont even know the meaning of perpendicular.
to all of u who STILL cant figure it out:
perpendicular = L <--that means yes those two lines meet. they dont necessarily cross each other. she didnt say, 'i hope our paths become a plus'. sheesh, people.
btw Xiada, cool stuff
— sabz3003
"a cross" ha ha good call. thanks for your comment sabz
— Xiada
haha!... MFine's first 3 comments!!^ lol...that happens to me too...all that &n bsp
crap is so annoying!
isn't "Ah, fuck it!" just the perfect answer for everything?! haha.....it's a personal favorite of mine..... :)
— woman_power
cute poem!
— Meadow
yeah fuck it. hah.
— Xiada
wat is with this perpebdicular meaning crossing, or meeting?
it means at right angles to. they dont necessarily join.
— unknown
*perpendicular
— unknown
First two lines make wonderful sense and are very sweet. But I'm lost about L3.
— oksana
Horizontal can also mean " stone cold DEAD"!
— unknown
Clever poem
— larrylark
it's amazing, reading others comments, and maybe im young and thats why i find this amazing, but how a couple of words can make such a clatter. either way, this poem sparked something in everyone - well done.
— sedena
Cute and to the point....the loveseat knows!!!
— essenie
oh this is cute! wonderfully simple and clever.
— SteelAngel
The many folks who pointed out that perpendicular lines NEVER cross are correct.
Because of it, the poem is weakened.
— rob
that's parallel. perpendicular lines HAVE to intersect.
— SteelAngel
lol.. nice..
— denik
tee hee thanks
— Xiada
Perpendicular lines do not cross, they travel next to each other. That didn't make a dent in my enjoyment because we often travel beside people and suddenly get "horizontal" with them, when we realize they are there and other good stuff.
— Isabelle5
i think you are thinking of parallell lines, which may travel forever alongside each other but will never cross. perpendicular lines intersect to form right angles. (h ttp://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=perpendicular)
ha ha i think its funny that this poem has also become a geometry lesson
— Xiada
he he :)
— Estrella
I hope our paths become perpendicular
; &nbs p; and
; &nbs p; us
Horizontal again
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~NICE!
— unknown
You've managed simple, sweet and sexy in three lines, no mean feat if you ask me!
— wamblicante
or
isosceles triangles
that will be the wheelbarrell move
— crepaway
tee hee
— unknown
I'm thinking of train tracks running horizontal and perpendicular to each other - ahh true love a runaway train.
— unknown
tee hee hee!
— unknown
It's only three lines but its wonderful! I love it.
— greeneyedgrl
:)
nice poem!
— unknown
That is so sexy. Very yummy. Leaves me wanting more, but suitably fulfilled. Very well written!
— WordsAndMe
awesome!!! I love the combination of logic and poetry... this has the harmony of a sine curve!
— sparrow
Oh god, it seems to have been hard enough to explain that perpendicular lines meet at 90 degree angles....and now we have sine waves? That's a recipe for disaster. This poem, however, is not. The abrupt break on line two is especially effective, and line three is exceptional in that it adjusts itself to the feeling of the reader. Whether you read sex, death, relaxation, is up to you, and that's part of the beauty of this poem's simplicity.
