Happy Saturday my fellow Smurfs.
When I saw that my designation was Poet, it made me think of some mathematical poetry.
So, mathematical poetry. This is based on the Fibonacci Sequence, which is 1,1,2,3,5,8,13... Each number in the sequence is the sum of the two preceding numbers. If you've read "The DaVinci Code" you know something about that.
To write a "fib" the number of syllables in each line must follow the fibonacci sequence, so the first line has 1 syllable the second 1, the third 2 etc. Poems should have 6 lines.
An example (not written my me!) is
One
Small,
Precise,
Poetic,
Spiraling mixture:
Math plus poetry yields the fib.
