Uyematsu, AmyStone Bow PrayerPoetry. Amy Uyematsu is an award-winning poet who by day switches from right to left brain to teach algebra and geometry in public high school. The result of her poetry-math life is a fascinating, far-flung but surprisingly connected book that interlinks mathematics, poetry, politics and spirit. STONE BOW PRAYER is a remarkable journey in which-as one poem suggests-"Geometry Gets Mixed Up with God and the Alphabet," and the infinite and minute nurture one another.
