Pro.Face.See

I wanna play, what's your name... My name is Noah and I built a boat. Got some tablets that said she'd float. Then two by two and just after goats, I stuffed them in, minus the rain coats. Little miss, on the jist, of the Note. I wanna play, what's your name... They call me Albert and I'm in.sane. After I died, they digitized, my brain. Now a computer bares my name. Wrote a book so they could see, the speed of light in a recipe.Almost. Just 2 eyes shy, the chicken boast... I wanna play, what's your name... They call me King, but it's all the same. After I died, I gave you my name. Oh shoo! The cinder.fella called me You?! My three 'mids are still short two. I'm no fool... Just is, Khufu. I wanna play, what's your name... They say Pacal, but it's all the same. After I died, I kept the flame... for you. Long later on, she gave you my name. Elevation, is what I claim. You wanna play? What's your name... Who me?

You are so clever, Izzy, and your poems are such a joy to read! This one really rocks with laughter all the way through. (Love the references to Einstein and Noah!) Hope James Peranteau reads this; his son is named Noah. You missed your calling -- you should have been a stand-up comedian! Love this wild write! Carolyn
