I Never Tried

I never tried a Rubik’s cube. From what I could see it looked so very puzzling and difficult to me. But if they somehow made it round, how could it be the same? Surely they would give it then at least a new last name. A Rubik’s circle they could call it. Better yet – a ball! Please make it be of rubber. I could bounce it off a wall!

Lovely. I too would call it a ball. When you're fed up with it you can kick it. ~~
