I first read "The Geometry of Poetry" by Janet R. Kirchheimer online in Poemeleon -- and her work also has appeared in many other journals, anthologies and websites. She is currently
producing AFTER, a film that explores poetry written about the Holocaust. Thanks, Janet, for this poem with its mathy comparisons.

The Geometry of Poetry
Some poems lie around for A LONG TIME waiting for me to pick them up. Or I pick them up and put them down in a special place and then place something else on top of them. Such is the case with Janet Kirchheimer's "The Geometry of Poetry" -- several years ago Janet and I corresponded and then I didn't follow through with posting her poem. And now, this week, I am working on a paper for Bridges 2017 -- a math-arts conference to be held in Waterloo, Ontario at the end of July -- and my working title is the same as the title of Janet's poem. AND, this coincidence helped me to FIND her poem to give you to enjoy.
