Maths Demon

The world demon flew

High above

Another truth revealed

Their eyes

In tears

Longing

The flag

In tatters

Hanging

As above

So below

The demon thought

Sighing

Abandonment twice recalling

Swearing never again

Falling

Swearing never again

Failing

Differential equations

The power of Maths

Forever ruling
