In her eatplaymath blog, I found the results of her suggestion that students submit mathy poems to their school literary magazine. I offer below the first of the poems in the collection that Winer offers; go here to read more -- AND, consider a poetry project for math students that YOU know!

I am bad at math (read top to bottom)
I am horrible at math

I can get an A.
But, if I try my hardest
I will fail.
