Ode to the First OctantEating my oatmeal, sipping my tea,

“Left/Right, Up/Down, and Forward/Back -
There are but three choices...

History books say 'twas eighteen hundred and three
When war struck the trees where bees sometimes bumbled.

Questions and AnswersWe answer big questions one by one
As scientific progress marches on.
When we find an answer, we’re not done.
Up spring two new questions to dwell upon!
Math then informs us of a sad pitfall.

Journey to the Right BrainOur brains, the experts do opine,
Have a left side, a right side, and a dividing line –

Strumming resonance with
Not 1..Not 2......
