It is trivial to question matters Of the big and small For within geometric progression We find that every size has an origin Or starting point from wence it grows Like the spinning fractal that fractures And divides itself into slightly altered Versions of its original self Yet somehow still maintaining the intricacy That would make Pythagoras blush As he contemplates the diagonals That separates the stars on the grandest scales Whereas each individual twinkle Seemingly comprises the same amount of space To the eye untrained to experience A universe larger than the mind can comprehend No, These ruminations are trivial Because at the heart of every idea Lay the very precept upon which life itself is founded Where the import of every single inquiry Will always be The question itself Not just its complexity

The Triviality of Progressions
It is trivial to question matters Of the big and small For within geometric progression We find that every size has an origin Or starting point from wence it grows Like the spinning fractal that fractures And divides itself into slightly altered Versions of its original self Yet somehow still maintaining the intricacy That would make Pythagoras blush As he contemplates the diagonals That separates the stars on the grandest scales Whereas each individual twinkle Seemingly comprises the same amount of space To the eye untrained to experience A universe larger than the mind can comprehend No, These ruminations are trivial Because at the heart of every idea Lay the very precept upon which life itself is founded Where the import of every single inquiry Will always be The question itself Not just its complexity
