APOLOGIES TO KEATS (Poem)



Imagine what Keats MIGHT have said had he desired to address the issue of mathematical proportion implicit in Greek vases:

Its base is but a starting place,
In height but insignificant,
Yet stately stands the lovely vase
Its form is just magnificent!
On top, its mouth flares from the heart.
Considering Its size,
The whole but greater than the parts;
Proportions yield surprise.
