      Phi - A Poem

      Golden Section via reductio ad absurdum.
      Oh, how these gods love ratios of perfection!
      Continuously irrational and diverging to a singular divinity,
      it's about the peripheral:
      Golden Gnomon
      Golden Angle
      Logarithmic
      Spiraling
      Down

      137.5° or 2π over Φ;

      As beautiful as these virgins be,
      meet me in the Parthenon!
      I'm ready to reduce your passion and your love
      to an aesthetic geometry,
      because our ancestors obsessed
      to correct the idea of beauty and proportion.

      Hoorah! for the Golden Ratio. Nice poem. I'm glad you were able to express your appreciation for Phi. The last lines were amusing in a way, yet sort of sobering, you know?
      Never stop searching for truth. In your search you may think you have found it, and perhaps you have, but if you hold on tightly to a single thread it will fray and it's greater meaning will become lost. There is always more truth stretching deep beneath the surface that promises to reveal ever greater the infinite, interwoven fabric of truth, woven in the looms of Heaven.
