Dear david, yes theres always a slice of timelessness floating in air, as long as we see the sky, we would be reminded of such and more! This is a very profound monoku, and one that is woven in such an intelligent manner, using mathematical wordplay, which i think is clever; as im not very good at that, altho using them in poems is fun for wordplay to me: youv written a very good monoku as always: best wishes for the contest: pleasure reading this..: sending you light -~

Heya Ink, yes there’s a slice of timelessness and infinity in every arc of the sky, knowing the math is not too important, possibly more important is how we visualise it inside our mind, I’ve no idea how this one will be interpreted by the sponsor, hopefully in good light, but one just never knows, thanks so much for stopping by today, cheers David

I'm v v tired but I get 'live for another day' from the literal slice of pi(e). Whilst there's some left of anything then perhaps our work isn't yet done. 1000 versions of me in a room with pi to infinity and I'd emerge non the wiser. Sad state of affairs lol

Heya Dilly Pi is a totally irrational number so don’t worry about being none the wiser, but a thousand versions of you may well just crack infinity, but only after a good night’s sleep lol! Cheers David

Clever use of pi in the sky. radius square etc. etc. What ever happened to the Ozone Layer? Cheered me up!

True that, reading about it. Banning chemicals helped.

Nothing like a piece of Pi to cheer us when having a bad day Anaya, the ozone layer is actually healing itself and the hole is shrinking, some good news! Cheers David

Such great brevity David describing that region of the atmosphere and outer space seen from the earth.that goes on forever. I hereby score you 22 out of 7. :) Cheers - Gary

Ha good one 7 x Pi = 22 give or take an infinite amount of crumbs lol! I remember as a kid in school I always wondered if someone would finally prove it stopped at some point, well this is as near as I’ll ever get, cheers David

Lol, love it David, for some strange reason an image of a tiger came into my mind. Best of luck in the contest. Tom

Pie pi, I thought as much, can still see the tiger lol.

Ha the life of Pi, I hadn’t even thought of that movie, no this one is a play between pie and pi, and the curvature of the sky, I hope the sponsor gets my meaning, thanks so much Tom, cheers David

Clever David, love your play on words and the clever theme. Math this time. Best wishes for the Contest.

Thank you Michael, strange thing about Math, there is a major debate as to whether mankind created it, or discovered it in the fabric of the universe, perhaps it’s a bit of both, cheers David

I'll have a piece of that if you don't mind sharing. ;-) Good one, David!

Yes, just like those people who are always touting big ideas that never come to fruition.

Heya Lin you hit upon the gist of my monoku, there is always an infinite amount of Pi in the sky by its very own spherical nature, so help yourself lol! Cheers David
