You see my four pi radians squared,
but I'm at least four thirds pi r cubed.
the light illuminates only my surfaces,
and only where eyes are to see.
Author notes
I'm poetically constipated. I know what I want to say, but I can't get it out. Nothing looks right, and everything seems so pat and completely obvious, or worse, utterly facile.
I'm irritated, and I'm posting this... this... thing... I think I'll come back and edit it. Or completely change it... or deny its existence.

No need to "deny [this poem's] existence" LOL though I am not quite sure what prompt you used. I like the originality in these lines. I get a sense of a very complex individual who can't adequately show the world his/her real self. Thank you for an intriguing entry.
