On Poetry

(in memory of Albert Einstein, born on a March 14, and in memory of Steven Hawkings, died this morning March 14, 2018, and in honor of my brother.) A poem,prose, or proverb, if done correctly is like, and may in fact be a type of mathematical equation or proof itself, in many ways. Wisdom is mathematical or might be.

Dan: Well put. Some do feel wisdom can be measured mathematically but I'd rather feel its "sensed" by others. But that's coming from someone that has none. :o) Thanks for sharing your "word smith wisdom" with all of us on the soup. oldbuck

Interesting metaphor here. Like chess and mathematics poetry can have a beautiful and quite logical meaning. Nice!
