Decagram is a love poem in the language of geometry, beautifully captured by the poet Hafiz (1325 1390) it is the masculine (I) and the feminine (o) the first couple, the first union 1 and 0 makes 10, ones beginning and ones end, the most perfect union

Our union is like this:
You feel cold so I reach for a blanket to cover our shivering feet.
A hunger comes into your body so I run to my garden and start digging potatoes. You asked for a few words of comfort and guidance and I quickly kneel by your side offering you a whole book as a gift.
You ache with loneliness one night so much you weep, and I say
here is a rope, tie it around me, Hafiz will be your companion for life.

HAFIZ b.1325
