The word "calculus" comes from the Latin for pebble, because Romans used pebbles on counting boards. (This information is also free of charge!) As for the intersection of caluclus and poetry, I found this poet — Britt Kaufmann who "set out to take calculus for the first time at age 47 so she could cross it off her bucket list. She did not expect it to lead to her first full-length collection of poetry:" A new release entitled: Midlife Calculus: Poems Paperback - September 6, 2024. I hope her work is not "derivative."
