Birth

when U R Born you’re brand new…a newb…a newbie, and not a new-d, even if technically U R nudie, but U don’t have those tendencies yet. Wait, though, cause then life happens and does a number on that letter…that newb loses its new and becomes just b.

b that—as the years continue to pass–flips around to d, & U seem the same on the outside:

U ÷ flip = U

but not really. Here is the algebra to back that up:

newb(life – new) ÷ flip = d

Death

& U R old…O so old…an ol-d. Not ol-b, though, because then U would just b cheese without vision.
