Golden ratio.
Divine proportion.
Take the length of a;
measure the distance of
[b] and [c] and divide it
once by  [1.62]

Yielding perfection with faults
and if Aphrodite appears before
me to say that I'm wrong
I'll stare her in the eyes and tell her
due to time someone possessing
greater beauty came along.

Comparing the one whose holding my heart captive
to the goddess whose caused fixation and induced
men to go mad and if that's my intended path
then tell them with no hesitation that a mad man I am.

A Greek goddess whose remains are nothing
but a memory ingrained in a statue and in
comparison [two] is giving Aphrodite's name justice
and stating her being is the definition of a living goddess.

[25] a number which marks the
beginning of something new.
Ironically containing the both the
numbers [five] and [two].
