Newton's Second Law of Motion: RBF Restatement Of:

"Isaac Newton discovers

The rational geometrical rate of change

Characterizing the interattractiveness

Of any two celestial bodies

While their relative distances apart

Vary only at an arithmetical rate

Which attractiveness itself

Let alone its inverse

Second power rate of gain

Is not manifest

In any of the physical characteristics

Of either of the celestial bodies

When either is considered only separately

And only in terms of its

Integral dimensions, mass, chemistry

And independent electromagnetic properties..."
