Mathematics

O’ cleverest witch, yet
Prudent of all science,
mighty and sharp like 
a hunter’s blade.

On your strong infinite 
Spine you carry them;
real and imaginary
 demons, rational and 
irrational fools of 
numbers.

 How sadly they seem, as 
they travel far and wide-
eternity, their feet nailed
 to the number line.  

To us that wander; you 
cast logarithmic spells, 
and sync up the music,
spotless glows- as though 
in a disco; the razzle dazzle rose,
the spiro disco ball, 
the space cadets; we dance 
and swing till our days 
come to nothingness.
