My poem is Geometry

just a bit of fun :) captcha for this one is "fumbler" ... ;}

My Poem is Geometry

surgical lines draw

coordinating parallels on

metaphorical axis 

protracting angles

mesmerize my complex balance

of X and Y

internal compilations combust in

black and white my

pointed mind abstactions

obsolete

verbal gyrations this

body of evidence

twist and turn

 

my poem is geometry

and very hard to learn

I loved geometry becuz defining space and objects is tangible, but algebra felt so damn meaningless with x's and y's & no concrete answers! I love your creativity in picking such a relatable idea to write a poem about! I love the way your mathematical terms could apply to many possibilities thru-out life, far from the buttons of any calculator! *smile* Hope your holiday season is sizzling with joy & good eats! I also hope this is a sign you're posting new writing more lately . . . my attendance has been sketchy, but I haven't seen you posting too much for a bit & we miss you! (((HUGS))) Fondly, Margie

thanks Margie ... you know i luv ya!

Just like margie just said, I hate math but i liked geometry too! I took algebra 3 times before i passed it and the last time the teacher taught the class in front of my desk!!! This was so clever I enjoyed reading this so much and i'm very impressed with the cross references this was a ballsy undertaking and you pulled it off wonderfully!!! I simply must show this to one of my computer nerd friends i hope you don't mind she will love it.

oh i wouldn't mind at all Bunny! i was the same way with both maths and sciences in high school .. never appreciated them until i took up poetry actually.... kind of funny eh!? ... but there is a lot of the arts in the sciences ... those in the fields just have to step out of their frocks for a moment to see it ;) really tickled to have your visit and review ... Merry Christmas ... see you around

Geometry and poetry both contain the measurements of where we can go. One mentally, the other, emotionally. Although they are just tool, creatively used to fit as we wish. I guess pythagorean theorem could be used to reach the top of euphoria if you know how far away the bottom of despair has taken you. The distance is just a formula away.

Really enjoyed your poem. Thanks for sharing.

[Einstein Noodle]

and i enjoyed your comments Shy ... not sure we have met before ... i will have to stop by your pages ... thanks for reviewing with a chuckle

Aaaah! The dreaded geometry! Just kidding- I get it, I get it! Applause for Euclid- thank you for the painting and the brilliant quote E.! Love the cleverness, the word play, the metaphor & personification. Just hate the Xs and Ys!!

[Einstein Noodle]

I'm with you Annette! never got along with math nor science until much later in life ;) thanks for your encouragement my friend ... glad you enjoyed

I could never get my head around it... I got a thing about curves ya see.. nevertheless, am gonna get straight to the point.. told ya didn't I...there was me thinking it's all about straight lines.. how dumb was that.. never made a drug error in me life tho.. not knowingly anyhow.... okay.. now where was I.. oh' yes bloomin brilliant squire whichever way ya look at it..... Best.. N:)

[Einstein Noodle]

thanks for taking time and for my chuckles as well...this is a good point to sign off for the day ... a good chuckle with friends and encouragement to write again ;))) thanks Nev ... top o' the mahrnin' to ya!

Have ya ever seen a smile appear outa nowhere... I was watching this space and bingo, that one up there just did.... :)

Your knowledge is phenomenal,
You are by Nature very gracious.
And your preferred physicist is Einstein.
Without a doubt your poem is geometry!

[Einstein Noodle]

ahahaha you flatter me Mrudula :) say it some more:))))))))))))))))))))
yes! Einstein is a hero for me ... an incredible person and genius ... this one was fun for me .. thank you so much for reading and commenting .. peace and love

It is always a pleasure reading your thoughts, dear E. wishing you a Wonderful Christmas and a very happy new year.

[Einstein Noodle]

same to you and yours :)

[Ken Simm.]

Wish I'd written this. Brilliant. Quantum in fact.

[Einstein Noodle]

oh my Ken! i have a big head now!! you wish you wrote it!!!!! it doesn't get any better than that ...but i do know you are a generous man so i promise not to stay inflated too long ;) love ya brother ..Merry Christmas

You are taking us back to school times sir...As far as your name, you should be writing on physics. Just kidding. Very good comparison between poetry and geometry on the axis of thought and feeling resolutions.

[Einstein Noodle]

thanks Sami! i appreciate your time taken and for your review ... i do have some stuff more along the lines of Einstein and physics ... but it is not overt ... except for this one http://www.writerscafe.org/writing/rIGt2mAk3/1923936/

ps i could barely stand my math classes .. any of them ... in my senior year i quite going to math and science classes and was done for the day around 11 AM ...needless to say my appreciation for both sciences has changed :)

[Sami Khalil]

Wow. All understandable. You are welcome sir E.
