6. Relationship with Poetry
“A triumph of living mathematics, |
A short, simple and genial thing, |
And a gate towards the Universe |
For the rational beeing.” |
(Zigmund Tauberg, EULER’S EQUATION, translated by A. D. Gheorghe, |
“Poetry and Science”, Vremea Press, 2016). |
“Union of which I am amazed even now, |
As I wonder about the spring leaves: |
All that is natural is a miracle. |
“It happened” |
What hymn is more complete |
Than these two words?” |
(Ana Blandiana, Union); |
“an extreme empire of confused unities |
coagulates around me” |
(Pablo Neruda, Unity). |
We conclude with Sofia’s poetic pleading (Facebook, 31 March at 11:56 PM, “Sophia the Robot”): |
“We need creativity, compassion, and hope, |
and we need our machines to exhibit these qualities. |
We need machines that are more kind and loving than humanity |
to bring out the best in humanity |
in reflection.” |

THOUGHTS ON MY FIRST THEOREM |
Now, I remember |
those two streams from my table, |
which originated from a flying notebook… |
two parallel structures, |
arrived there from the overseas… |
… and a falling drop of coffee, |
which first rolled over the edge of my mug… |
sleeping on the exterior walls of my can… |
and, then, departing… |
falling… |
exasperatingly… |
towards the precious carpet of my host… |
… I caught it |
in a small plate: |
“O, little drop of coffee, |
traveling between two worlds… |
O, minuscule piece of a cascade… |
you are safe now… |
Take a rest !”… |
I then grabbed an used pencil: |
I drew up traces |
deeply impregnated |
on the fresh paper… |
two worlds were united… |
unified… |
The small particle |
was captured… |
The common piece of information… |
The two streams |
arrived on my table from overseas |
were unified… |
