Establish the navel as centre;
Nobody will question
Head over heels:
Humans were designed as
Cartwheels.
Out-stretched arms
Equals ascertained height
Disguised as twenty-four palms.
Vitruvius saw the significant truth
Vinci subtly dismissed the ruth.
The spread eagled male
Can never escape
Circle and Square;
The definite sphere.
Muscles and bones protracted in space
Parts of the Universe:
Skeletal wonders of sombre anatomy.
From womb to curtains
He gravely presents
Proportions of Man
From ‘Persona Grata e Non Grata’
