From Seattle poet Kathleen Flenniken, a sensitive application of the normal distribution to the population of participants in an elementary school recorder recital:
The Beauty of the Curve by Kathleen Flenniken
The curtain lifts on Bryant Elementary School's
Spring Recorder Recital. Ninety third-graders
fumble with their instruments, take a breath
and blow. Their parents, braced, breathe too
as "Hot Crossed Buns" emerges, a little scattershot --
the Normal Distribution brought to life.
