The Right Brothers
In December of nineteen hundred and one,
Experts everywhere said it couldn’t be done.
In a piece in the North American Review,
The Navy’s chief engineer conveyed his view.
The brothers were wrong - man would never take flight,
But in aught-three, the world knew the brothers Wright.
