Analysis of Geometry of the mind
Ronald Tirino 1962 (NYC)
Geometry of the mind
Through the scaffolds of logic
between the skeletons of structure
to factor into reframes of schematic data
grasping ever higher
Converging lines meet pinnacles of tilted lines
hexagonal spires reach upward
receding falling slopes
toward points of reason unframed
in the matrix of our mind
Where streams of consciousness unwind
seismic shifts awake that which was asleep
waves of particles coalesce
through organic links of time
Abstracted
from whole’s to the parts
compartmentalized catorgized
distilled and refined
separated between the lines
synthesized to fit the fitted mold
Ambiguous analogies
reflections of mirrored metaphors
descriptive deceptive diagrams
of binary digits of formulated codes
abstracted from life
subverted and unreal
