If the Rubik's Cube Was Round

If the Rubik's cube was round I'd roll it in the snow caress it like a meatball then hide it in the dough If it had same old shades of white aligned to match and two knobby handles with a little silver catch I would turn it slowly, rotate it, find the latch If the Rubik's cube was spherical like soccer balls combinatorially correct, without four simple walls If it was soft in the center instead of hard like rock I'd squish it into place just like a child of Dr. Spock put it on a leash and slowly walk it round the block If the Rubik's cube was a big old Ferris wheel of fun I'd configure it with motion and solve it on the run If the Rubik's cube was bally and built like solid O I'd solve it in a jiffy, match the colors yell Bingo ! I'd wear it like a trophy and put it out for show If the Rubik's cube was made for geniuses like me, they'd be far too easy, and given out for free.

This is a brilliant take on the theme--I must admit, some of these themes are well beyond my capacity to imagine.
