Deep mysteries lie between the numbers whole.
Ratios have a logic we accept
But, in between, infinity dwells veiledAt first, one merely counted shark fin whales
Such numbers seem both simple and direct
Yet mysteries hide between the numbers wholeSheep and goats are counted soon as well
Yet mystery an hypoteneuse reflects
For at such points infinity dwells veiledA number which gives 2 when squared itself
Can nowhere find a ratio to check.
Yes, mysteries lie between our numbers wholeThe Greeks rejected such irrational stealth
To geometry only they chose to connect
For on a line, infinity dwells veiledOn infinite shores, their reason was well wrecked
As those who tried to measure circles found defects.
Deep mysteries lie between the numbers whole
On lines and arcs, infinity dwells veiled
