Aesthetic Golden Section Rule Poem by Margaret Alice Second

Aesthetic Golden Section Rule



Now I know why Edith Piaf's life was so tempestuous,
she was born on 19 December as a Sagittarean while
her Astrogenetic sign, counting nine months back, is
Aries, the most fiery, unbridled zodiac sign, she took
the lead in her artistic life, couldn't follow any rules -
was never interested in wealth, lived it up in style,
my theory works perfectly for understanding life

I am attracted by Scorpio who rises like a Phoenix
when life runs him down and by Capricorn who is
focused on rules and truth, as a Cancerian I seek
the discipline of the aesthetic Golden Section rule,
faced with the science of translation I fail to create
flowing lines from jumbled originals, earning the
scorn of this scientific fraternity - it is clear

I cannot rephrase in terms that satisfy, I'm wasting
my time fighting windmills, this war was lost before
the first shots were fired…
