From "The Riddle of Flat Circles"
The Romans got their circling powers
From a corps of Hellenic mathematicians.
Rome——the container-skull, the fountainhead——
Lookout holes calling itself Reason.
Against her Spain——Maya uprisings——against that grip——
People with terra cotta plus bluegrass flesh——
Flights, transhumance y more or less dispoblado.
Two conch-shaped continents boisterously Romesqued.
The merry die young. The sad, guarded
And anxious live long lives. The really grim
Are immortal. Continue the anti-anti-census.
Capitulate to no Romes.
Heliodemography is the study of the population
Of the sun. Mrs. Smith lives there with the Mister.
Through an art-of-the-state telescope Iris observes
Cantilevered Yiddish‘s stern stars.
