Radians
May 3, 2018
Although an angle in radians
seems a trivial quantity
compared to its degree equivalent,
it exceeds degrees in its elegance.
A tolerant, uncomplaining denominator
gracefully balances a weightless platform
on its invisible head,
while two abstract concrete pillars
point to the critical points
of a single cycle of a periodic function.

I wrote this poem for my math teacher. He and I both prefer radians to degrees because of their neatness and concision.
