(Iteration one)

How do I love thee? let me count the ways.

Better yet let’s examine the evidence.

My love for you bears striking resemblance

To an algorithm based on Bayes.

Rather than a simple counting of ways,

The function uses each interaction

As input for a dynamic calculation

That aggregates love’s probability.

Over time, even the smallest details

Can be taken to account, for instance

Your love of corn dogs has an influence

Alongside the millions of other ways.

I’m happy to say that I now believe

Probabilistic certainty has been achieved.
