Consecutive

A Poem by Kenneth The Poet

do we read nature or

does nature read us?

 

double slits and

particles exhibit

weirdness that many

of us can barely

comprehend…

 

such is the nature

of paradox, as

this statement is false…

 

or is it?

 

but the layperson

is a slave to eyesight,

only able to see at

base level magnification…

 

but even zooming to see

the details of a pebble

or a rice grain only goes

so far, only refocuses the

sight to the base level…

 

man sees god in a tripartite

configuration, but whether or

not that’s based on three point

in Euclidean space is up for debate…

 

pareidolia maybe?

 

if pareidolia is the answer,

then it probably explains

our tendency to think

linearly even if the

outside the box

idiom is invoked…

 

the whole numbers,

the integers come to mind…

 

consecutive values separated by one,

always be one, always is one…

 

apply the values to the above

truth about Euclidean space…

 

one, two, three can’t be made…

 

two, three, four is obtuse…

 

three, four, five is right…

 

the Pythagorean example,

the example most widely known,

the one where the area and

the semiperimeter are the same value,

all values consecutive whole numbers…

 

four, five, six is acute…

 

the largest angle is double

the smallest angle,

the Pythagorean constant

hidden deep within,

the smallest angle and

the Pythagorean constant

share an intimate relationship

with the seven-sided polygon,

the angle bisector of the largest

angle creates two triangles

where one is isosceles

and the other is similar

to the original,

and when the angle bisector

is taken four times, the

internal length is a decimal

value where the single-digit

numbers run from greatest to least…

 

consecutive patterns run through

the analysis yet again, a feature of it,

it appears…

 

from there, every other one

is acute and moves closer

toward equilateral perfection…

 

and everyone has quirks all

their own, yet there’s not time

nor space to exhort about them here…

 

the mind may work in mysterious

ways to the uninitiated but

the pattern seeking nature

makes it easy to discern if

one seeks the truth…

 

the consecutive patterns may

be the easiest to discover

but are quite fascinating

nonetheless, whether or not

Euclid fleshed them out…

 

let the geometric explorations commence
