The figure 8
Unbounded limit
Impinged on to physics
and mathematics
The figure 8
A snake like configuration
Without end, like
engaged in eating its own tail
The figure 8
Conjured by some
To be compatible with luck
and generosity
Mind boggling infinitas
Just unboundedness
Infinity!

That's a nice take on the letter eight... You took it as both eight and infinity.
ReplyDeleteI esp liked the second stanza:
The figure 8
A snake like configuration
Without end, like
engaged in eating its own tail

ReplyDeleteWords put together beautifully! I like the snake and the eight.

I love the vibrancy you have written into your imagery. A wonderfully constructed piece, Kaykuala. Thank you for sharing.
ReplyDeleteI like the concept of unbounded infinity ~ Nice one Hank ~
ReplyDeleteit seems there are infinite interpretations of it...smiles. the snake eating its own tale...though i had heard that one before i forgot...nice one...
ReplyDeleteYeah many a way to look at it and go round and round, although really I think there is no such thing as infinity at my ground.
ReplyDeleteLovely interpretation Hank. :)

Nice one. The tail eating serpent can be traced back to Egypt in 1600BC and can be found in most traditions. Deep and thoughtful piece :)
ReplyDeleteInfinity is good enough for me! Brilliant....
