Analysis of Bugbear Math.



Math was his bugbear.
In his math classes,
he perspired, perplexed
as if needed water few glasses.

When his teacher asked him
to explain formulas of aljebra.
He stammered,
only could utter bla... bla....bla.

Arithmatic was his night mare.
In classes he sat at the back,
tried to hide his face behind others
and faults and lack.

In geometry neither he could  draw
nor he could explain.
Only he made puzzle,
his superb brain.
