A transendental number
represented by a symbol
from the ancient Greek alphabet
irrational and infinite
Derived from the ratio
of the the circumference of a circle
to the circle's diameter
a constant parameter

No order, only chaos
No pattern in the output

Since 1794
a pattern has been sought
within the string of numbers
but found one we have not
500 billion digits
and continued calculation
no pattern has been found
in the results of this equation

DNA revolves around Pi
it's in the pupils of our eyes
a drop in water - spreading rings
the face of the moon and superstrings
We want a world that's organized
logical and supervised
but Pi transends rationality
and disturbs the order we want to see

It confuses and it fascinates
we wonder and it frustrates
we get closer as we calculate
