EXTRACT FROM ALICE´S SCHOOL EXERCISES NOTEBOOK ( JOSÉ FLORENCIO MARTÍNEZ) AND THE INDETERMINATE FORMS.

We hadn´t posted a poem here since last summer, so today we have one by José Florencio Martínez from the book Πoetas, an interesting anthology of Poetry with Maths published by Amargord editorial. It´s about the indeterminate forms, which are studied at High School included in Analysis.

 

( Operations with infinities)

1)- Is it possible to add 17 infinities?

2)- What is the square root of 3 infinities and a half of chocolate boxes?

3)- If we subtract 5 infinities of Gods from 1 infinity of Gods, do we have -4 infinities left?

4)- How many infinities of fleas can run on a horse of light?

5)- Is an infinite butterfly the same as an endless number of butterflies?

6)- If the circumference is an infinite shape, how many infinities cover the two wheels of a bike chasing after Buster Keaton´s lost cow in a field without bounderies?

7)- If infinity costs zero euros, how much does an infinite of zeros cost?

8)- If we assume that the result of the previous problem is zero, was this zero included in the infinity of the infinitude in question?

9)- What is bigger, an infinity of sleeping elephants or an infinity of birds awake?

10)- If the genealogical tree of infinite numbers got autumned , how many autumns would be necessary to lose all its leaves?

11)- Can a giraffe with an infinite neck drink the reflection of the moon in the water of a two-dimensional pond?

12)- The numbers of poetry a) are they round? are they infinitesimal? b) are they cut on the bias of parallels that join in the infinity? c) do they resist the tension of the rose to infinity?

13)- What is the result of the addition of the pain of 10 poor if we divide this number for 5 rational realities and subtract it from their own dreams multiplied by 7 infinities?

14)- How many white mountains can the Queen of Hearts jump with a horse of an infinite whiteness in the innocence of the dawn?

15)- If you make a bread trail for ants with the leftovers of the snack, could its memory lead you to the “ non-place maze” without the White Rabbit unmasking the night over the poetry of infinite numbers? In affirmative case, isolate the unknown and explain the answer.
