And was bored, and suddenly
He sniffed secret cocks,
A thought flashed bright and utterly
A new, vivid phenomenon.

Numbers sprang like vibrating strings,
A swarm of formulas, graphs — his life!
From chaos into ordering —
A genius's mind shined bright.

Now in the world of mathematics
He makes discoveries like a god,
And though the word "cocks" is dramatic,
It's woven into fate by that step.
