ODE TO GRAPH PAPER
by Matt Helsley

Graph paper you're really great
Each coordinate you delineate
Patterns of two dimensionality
On euclidean grids of harmony

Graph paper my imagination does excite
How boring, how dull, plain paper white
Lines green, red, or blue
Superior to the flat non-hue

Graph paper with cartesian and polar coordinates
integrates, facilitates, and approximates
With log-log, and log-lin scales
Indeed, graph paper never fails
