Flatland
"Welcome to our world of two dimensions.
Here, there are only four directions:
North, south east and west,
And I, confined, by an eternal quest.
I speak to you from impriosnment,
A life of solitary confinement.
But I tell you, I am completely innocent,
And it was sparked by an extraordinary event.
Our community consists of points and lines,
Assortments of curves and varied designs.
There are some shapes, triangles and squares,
And occasional polygons with unusual flairs."
poem by Murty, Ram. Professor of mathematics at McGill University in Montreal.
