Mathematical Nirvana

Space is final frontier 
Like through ocean in age of sail
Spaceships cruse through space
Of course some dangers they also face

Math is fundamental to everything 
Whoever possesses most of knowledge is a king
But math that we don’t know exists in abstract
And there is really no end to depth of its impact

One would not be incorrect to say
That in any day
Math and reality are only remotely connected
But that is to be expected

Everything that exists can be counted by math
But far beyond that grows math
True limit of math is beyond abstract
And there is no end to its true impact

If to math something would be
What to steam engine is spaceship that in dreams we see
The person who understands it would be
Able to do much more than live indefinitely
