PEMDAS

Parenthesis always has their place,
whether on paper or on your face,
they outline the sides of a pair of lips,
or curve the area around your hips,
an exponent can be weird,
multiplying in ways i fear,
but when applied to money,
an exponent is my honey,
multiplication doubles or triples,
whether you're multiplying wrinkles or ripples,
it's an amazing game of numbers,
but i'd rather fall into slumbers,
division will quickly deplete,
but why won't it divide this incredible heat?
this symbol can divide by two or three,
but this heat makes me want to flee,
addition is very simple,
adding cheeks to a dipple,
adding enjoyment is fun,
but why does extra heat add to the sun,
subtraction would be nice,
if it could create me a piece of ice,
but what it does is cut down a price,
but why doesn't it cut down my grammar school's amount of mice,
well here i am repeating PEMDAS over and over,
i wish addition could make this a four leaf clover,
then with my luck i would say,
"There is half of school today"
