Square Pegs

The Devil said: "It's time for a parade.
Arrange the sinners into neat platoons,
according to the order Dante made,
and march them to the sound of martial tunes."

Beelzebub objected: "Foulness, please!
You know we simply cannot square a circle,
it is a rule of angles and degreesss..."
Trailed off with an apologetic gurgle.

"Get Euclid and Pythagoras to work",
his boss demanded, willing him to silence,
"or you will get demoted back to clerk.
Don't bore me with your can't be dones and science."

Beelzebub complied, but though he's fly,
has failed to overcome the humble Pi.
