One

I like wordplays and I like math. I also like researching things I think I know and discovering that maybe I don't know it as well as I thought. I'm not sure what I was reading that sent me down the "one" path.

One isn't an even number.

It isn't even a prime number.

One is odd.

One is a unit.


A unit,

is that what I am,

One person

single

not part of a pair or a group.


One, 

The lowest cardinal number,

Divisible only by itself.

A symbol of unity

because

all numbers are created from it.


Me,

One.

Not divisible.

Creator of two

who are also units.


Me, 

Once a part of a pair.

Now a unit.

Not prime.

Not a fraction.

Sometimes considered odd.

One.
