OO:one poem, notes:1/6/19

Orion's Onion

Polygonal

It's an algorithm I'd say,
In an answer to a query,
Why do you write that way?
It's polygonal...
A polygonal algorithmic archetecture...
I begin with a pile of stones
And try to move them all
As close together as I can,
And so a variegated wall,
Sense from nonsense...
Bolivia's altiplano salt flats,
Inca's gone Atlantis...
Cracked drought dried lake and sea beds...
Inca's noted the algo,
Myceneans too with their cyclopean,
Egyptians  too,
Oh, everywhere,
Sometimes rough hewn
Sometimes impressively seamless
Turtle shells, alligator hide
Flat rain mud after a few days of sunshine,
Aged asphalt roads,
Those basalt devils' postpiles,
Molton magma cooled just so
Long ago
To Jupiter's aria swirling algo,
Saturn's musical hexagonal
Do re mi fa so la ti do.


DolphinWords

Notes: rough hewn, I'd say, and easily on and on much more!
