Proofs!!!
I could never grasp proofs
they were too much for me
How could side-angle-side equal
prove that the hypotenuse squared
plus, the cosine of angle A equal
the square root of Pi?
How could (x+a)^n=?_(k=0)^n¦?(n¦k) x^k a^(n-k) ?
prove to be the same as
f(x)=a_0+?_(n=1)^8¦(a_n cos??npx/L?+b_n sin??npx/L? )
How could a squared plus b squared
equal the sine of angle abc if angle
cba was obtuse?
How could the right leg of an
isosceles triangle be equal
to the sum of two right angles?
If Jimmy had two ducks and I had
four turkeys, how do we get
three and one-half turduckens
between us?
Good thing I can count to ten, otherwise I
would really be lost!

If there is such a thing
in geometry as a female God
it is an inverted isosceles triangle
and that kiss
we impart to that inner space.
Every pyramid
has a star-person within it
we must find that person
he is the abandoned alien
within us.
Worship is not enough,
adoration unpleasant and foolish,
please make love
to the cosmic signs
to be found in our deepest dreams.
Then with reverence
and in secret, softly
close that door behind you.

Right angle is where love dwells in the East
Isosceles, when you love between the leasts
Acute is when your love is short and rough
Obtuse, when your love is more than enough...
All angles of love are great
So long as lovers give and take
Never doubt when and how love starts to break
When lovers know who gives up and shake

I have fun with the world of geometry
The square, the rectangle and the parallelogram
Oh' the trapezoid and the rhombus
The triangles, the isosceles and the equilateral
All are a great happy family together
The circles and ellipses are closely related
The formulas of geometry try to memorize
The areas and circumferences
The diagonals and angles
Learn the trigonometric functions
You discover a new world
The sines and cosines
The tangents and arc tangents
If all this is not enough to entice you
Hopefully and much soon you probably
will fall in love with world of geometry

I have fun with the world of geometry
The square, the rectangle and the parallelogram
Oh' the trapezoid and the rhombus
The triangles, the isosceles and the equilateral
All are a great tight family together
The circles and ellipses are closely related
The formulas of geometry try to memorize
The areas and circumferences
The diagonals and angles
For the trigonometric functions
You discover a new world
The sines and cosines
The tangents and arc tangents
If all this is not enough to entice you
Most probably now you fell in love with geometry

they talk incessantly of flashbulbs
rickety stories, anchorless
friends are geometries
everytime they sit
in an isosceles triangle
two or more persons
form a conspiracy
the tongue is a genie
smuggling, plotting, spying
friendship, brinksmanship, companionship
all ships are enclosed in bottles

Mauricio Cabrera
has abandoned control for something much rarer
outrageous velocities
innately more fun than triangles isosceles.

Quizz with broad hints for poets
the nose bridge
an ear sans fold kneeling on a slab (sometimes
an upward curling lobe)
two upper ears sans lobes both folded into each other
two narrow noses meeting isosceles arms one leg
crossed on the right arm flat down
an upside down mirror-image interrogating sans point
an upright eye with fish tail tuft
left shoulder and loosely-dangling arm
upper and lower lips intertwined upright
knee-cap over bow leg
vertebral column sliding into hole

at the end of the right angle,
your brain function seems unattractively acute,
and the putridity and the pungency is quite obtuse
something happened between the early period and the now
it is as if you watered down your morals and accept anything that comes
you changed your hair, your presentation, your reaction, and your choice of friends
i seem to have fallen into the trapezoid and the isosceles triangles of life with you
each curve is sharp and the focus has no clear purpose
i am tempted to go back to the cooler center where 45 connects with 45
maybe then i will be able to breathe easier because the temperature coming from nowadays you is not working in this spherical hemisphere of me
it is getting so that now there is no common ground at the midpoint
i just end up passing you by as you make yet another attempt to keep my attention
totally uneven is our overall ebb and flow

I
Am
A three
Sided figure.
Three pointed vertices
Which add up to total 180.
Am of many different types and,
They include right angled,isosceles equilateral
Triangles,which all have one face and three edges
The implementation of me is simple as my speech shape.

If you place two triangles together,
you form a square....
If you now turn it point to point,
you form a diamond...also,
north,south,east and west...
Now...if you extend a line north to west,
then west to south,and so on,
south to east,and east to north,
you now form two isosceles triangles....
Water being elastic,stretching
from gravitational or magnetic pull,
now forms an ellipse...bulging,
east to west near the equator...
Scientist say,that the water level
is the second lowest in recorded history,
and yet...ice melt and ice chunks,
the size of Manhattan...fall into the Arctic,
....wouldn't you think,
that the water level would be rising ?
could this also cause intensified storms ?
