geometry

"Crystals grew inside rock like arithmetic flowers. They lengthened and spread, added plane to plane in an awed and perfect obedience to an absolute geometry that even stones - maybe only the stones - understood."

Annie Dillard

"All one's inventions are true, you can be sure of that. Poetry is as exact a science as geometry."

Gustave Flaubert

five morning glories
water collects in blue drops
august lightning flash
