do we discover mathematics?
Do we
discover mathematics
or do
we invent it?
Do
the circles discover us, does the golden section surprise us,
π, the small limits and unimaginable infinity,
the
great series of numbers, the sine curves, the neat unified circle
the
equations of the fourth degree
language
invents us
we
fight against this discovery, entwined in its meanings
as
others, always others have created
les
verbes irréguliers
I
verbi italiani coniugati senza abbreviature
these
shameless verbs that can never prevent
a
sentence from setting itself in motion
that
always gets the most rusty machinery going too,
that
gets the nouns to rub ungreased up against each other
squeaking,
but in motion nonetheless
Via
algebra the existence of God is proven at the court of Catherine the Great
though
only for those ignorant of mathematics
Languages
grow like gardens in May, full of brushwood and weeds
Here
a beech towers with kinglike crown
The
rape explodes with its sweet scent and its stinging yellow
a
yellow eye that observes us
that
invents us
