    Except no one will get as far as lines (verse?) 14 + 15 because you have already suffocated us with your self-indulgent display of erudition. . . your sarcasm isn't too hot either.

    Sorry to hear that.
    Good thing you're answering for ''everyone'', eh?

    Indeed - since there's not a queue of readers waiting to offer you their feedback.

    Welcome to LitNet by the way - I wonder how we survived before you washed up on these shores.

    My vocabulary isn't large enough to understand this poem - is this a fault of the poem or a fault of the reader?

    Enjoyed digging through your poem.

    Did not know Riemann was the first to work with n dimensions. Mathematics and theology/philosophy... Incredible man!

    Also, from wikipedia - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bernhard_Riemann :
    Riemann was the inspiration for mathematician Charles Lutwidge Dodgson (better known by his pen name Lewis Carroll) to write Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass

    He wasn't the first, but his work was ''revolutionary'', I ''made'' him the central figure; and that was just for the Mathematics/Physics part.
