Bent is Strong, Straight is Weak

Natural design favors curves, twists, turns and bends — just think of rivers winding with sinuous, trees with curves and bent branches and trunks, and rolling hills and landscapes. Straight lines are an aberrant artifact of human warped design. 

------------------------------

Listen to poem:
In nature, being adroit and straight is rare, It's curves and bends that fill the air. See rivers that twist, Trees bent to resist, For strength lies in being bent, not straight.
