 LV sez to BoinbBoing, "Lia over at cheesedip.com annotated the Electronic Bard's love poem from Stanislaw Lem's The Cyberiad, for those of us who are not quite mathematically savvy but still want in on the joke."
Come, let us hasten to a higher plane
Where dyads tread the fairy fields of Venn,
Their indices bedecked from one to n
Commingled in an endless Markov chain!

Come, every frustrum longs to be a cone
And every vector dreams of matrices.
Hark to the gentle gradient of the breeze:
It whispers of a more ergodic zone.

I can't tell if I got enough sleep. My bedframe of bones is creaking, unready for heavy use. The springs are fallen, rusting in thier saltwater sheath.
