Acropolis

***

The Greeks knew this
the optical illusion

A building built of straight lines
In order to have the impression of perfection
No lines can be straight

and the rocks run smoother
the more people
have walked them before
limestone once paved in marble
eight columns in front
seventeen on the sides
one was added
and it changed everything

even gods and goddesses
had to face the sun

rising
