Don't worry about it, anymore "its" and it'll fall apart all on its own.  

Also, you forgot to line up the last line- the one that starts with "Please note..." Big Grin

Very appropriate title, as the prime directive of the poem is that it is "true to form", as it is constructed using binomial coefficients of prime numbers, which are than cleverly reconstituted as actual words.  

Thus, the fact that the "words mean nothing" is mathematically correct, as the ratio of the number of syllables in the 4th line, when added to inverse square of the number in the fifth line, is precisely "0" (or "nothing"-- its linguistic equivalent).  

Unfortunately, you can't divide by zero. And that is where the pyramid reveals a negative tendency toward infinity. (It would work, however, if you stood it on its tip.)


I'm (almost) impressed.  
... Mark
Ah, mark. Nothing really matters...without it where would we bi.

Yup...happens alll the time. Go on, falsely praise me.
Best,
