Silence please! A shout rang out
The hush descended and took
its place amidst poised pens
quivering over blank paper
CATASTROPHE
An equation, a maze of numbers
letters, mishaped symbols
spread itself across the page
a mocking invitation to empart wisdom
I closed my paper

I love this poem Demar it is an enigma itself that is unraveled in its spelling Cat as trophe(y) reminding me of an old poem I wrote by that titile. Equation of letters deciphered as different words when broken down to lowest common denominator. A fun read
Enjoyed it! I feel the same way about math. Thanks for the share!!
I looked at the paper and got pi eyed squared.
Probably why I walk around in circles now.
