Fifteen cannot be Seen

Fifteen you see is seldom seen

Except in the realm of primes,

The product of the number five,

Multiplied three times.

 

Fifteen in his genetics,

Is a complicated mix,

There's three and five and maybe one,

But never is there six.

 

Fifteen must have wondered,

If his lot is second best,

If you are not among the primes,

You must be something less.

 

Fifteen is seen in Shakespeare,

In Caesar's great demise,

The doom it came the ides of March,

In Brutus and his lies.

 

Fifteen is seen in these here words,

A tragedy you see,

For in the end I can only rhyme,

The word, theophany.
