Premium Member Pi Day
On March fourteenth, the day of pi
I pined to buy an apple pie
A python spied me at the door,
a sharp-eyed pirate on the floor

Oh piebald pipe of piety
Do not aspire to piracy!
A spiny pain will occupy
My poor pylorus pining pie

Pied piper pyromaniac
Porkpie in hand, applies...

Pi Day
Today we should all be prepared
For some pizza, much better when shared;
	But it cannot be round
	For this date is renowned
As the one when all Pi must be squared....

Pi(E) Day Sestina Part 1
Pi (e) Day Sestina

being the recollection of a conversation between myself as I was trying to enjoy a piece of 
pie and my suddenly irrational, demanding, and surprisingly bilingual stomach on 3/14

I really want a frosted sugar cookie right now.
Now, don’t think I’m loca
but if...

Premium Member Pi - Inspired By the Movie
THREE year olds know about circles. They play
ring around the rosy and here we go round
the mulberry bush. And if one should say 
that in reality nowhere is found
a perfect circle, they either don’t hear
or won’t buy it.  Yet.  Another year
or so they’ll...

Premium Member Get the Most Out of Life of Pi
To read or watch movies, that is the question.
When tired at workday's end, depressed about death's
certainty and my recent surgery
unable to contribute purpose
i.e., figure out whether to bomb Iran
or worship Krshna
and other gods such as Homer gives us in the Iliad
I lack vision therefore I...

City’s upper east

Pi Love
To calculate the circumference of my heart
Just times Pi and my heart’s radius by two.
But to work the surface is more of an art,
Square the radius then times it by Pi too....

A call to arcs!!!

Breathes originating desiring chi to be thee

With fairies and Elves 
Choosing sides amongst themselves
Upon which side of the line
They chose pouring magic wine
Pawns on a chase board be

Sap Programmer, Lead Or Pi
Me doing programming
Being a part of a wonderful team… 

Knowing, not snoring 
During the meetings…

During discussions about the sky
Which is above us…

About its azure
Bright blue in color in cloudless skies…

(Now read slowly)
Sun shining brightly 
Intervening with slumber....

The Poem of Pi
The waves crash as I cry,
for I am lost,
it is lost,
it is all lost,
family, friends, love, my laughter.
I have but a boat and a beast....

Humble Pi
Consider for a moment the circumference of a coin
Inseparable is three point one four one five nine
Perimeters of toilets as you sit upon their seat
is just the perfect size when your bum feels replete

From boundaries of planets to sub-particle design  
are radii times twice...

Irrational?
Maybe_ 
Circumference divided by diameter
Is a never ending number
Just like the universe is never ending its increase in size
Also, if I ate pie
Like I would love to eat pie
I would be Pi     ...
