the physics of poetry & the poetry of physics

where physics is the manifestation of the inherent beauty of mathematics, so too is poetry the realization of the beauty of language. be it in math or words, both wield their media with a mastery and a precision rarely seen in any field. both subjects are built upon the centuries-old foundations of their respective masters, each one remembered for their pioneering, their creativity, their diligence.

the difference lies in the gender ratio of the classes. that has definitely been the most difficult part of the transition, going from an all-boys club to a veritable sorority. i'm afraid that my hand-waving dismissal of lady mary wroth's depressed whining and pining may get me into trouble with the more vociferous of my female peers.
