A Revelation - a Found Poem

Triangles tend to squares
tend to circles tend to
reasoning tends to forces
which tend to tending itself.

The law of attraction is attraction
to law which tends to the resolution
of perpendicular forces. 
 
From great circles, arcs vanish
because angles vanish together.
Equal be taken for equal and
things supposed will be.
