There in the center, the middle, the axis
The all of mathematics meets and relaxes
Pictured and framed though seems so abstract
That all is relied on system of fact

There lies some art, ten counts to the line
With rhythm and meter accutely defined
Points can be found; graphs can be made
Resting on foci, a poem is laid

Beautiful and sweet and purely from love
Analyzed, critiqued by edits above
But be bound by a law a physical system
Ask a dead poet and surely you pissed 'em

Your works always bring a smile to my face.
All that number talk kind of confuses me though. I've never been good at them.
