It’s
the

lus, the eye,
of the Pantheon,
not the night sky, nor moon in space.

Take a 360-degree tour of the Pantheon here.

Fibonacci poetry

Fibonacci refers to Fibonacci numbers (those of you who have read The DaVinci Code have heard of them.)

Fibonacci poetry then must follow the sequence 1,1,2,3,5,8. That is 6 lines with syllables in each that follow the sequence. Here’s the Google search on Fib poetry.

I thought I’d give it a go:

This
new
style of
poetry,
better than haiku?
Just different and int’resting.

So what do you think of my first attempt? Am I allowed to contract a syllable? Pronounce “different” in 2 syllables and the last line could be

Just diff’rent and interesting.
