Catechismic Chaos by Anna Tambour
Posted September 28, 2001 · Issue 111

Did nature in creation spurt with math as part of One,
       or are numbers a religion making all obey to Sum?

Whatever be the truth of it
       I never feel less grave,
Than when Nature to The Numbers,
       refuses to behave.

Anna Tambour, a former industrial designer, is now a full-time writer with a particular passion for observing other animals' natural behavior.

Susan Wolsborn is Web designer of HMS Beagle.
