The Reason For Scales On A Turtle Poem by Alexandre Nodopaka

The Reason For Scales On A Turtle



The Reason For Scales on a Turtle

The theory of spiritual
equilateral consistency
worked out for the turtle
that used to fly
until it fell
and shattered
its carapace.

With its slime
a slug glued
the broken pieces.

I suppose she must've been
an artist
judging by the intricate
polyhedral
interconnections
of implicit surfaces
no matter
its spiritual inclination
in the 4-dimensional space.
