Albert Einstein
In science he did shine
With great perceptivity
He gave us the theory of relativity
Relativity was buzzin'
With many theories, a dozen?
He took it a bit far
Some found it quite bizarre
When he married his own cousin!
Einstein met his first wife in school
He found her to be real cool
But he divorced her soon
To relativity's tune!

very much a poesy traditionalist
with lyrical musicality did persist

One time, we crossed the bridge of neverlong
Far away from Planetarium with kite.
We saw a painting on a high concrete wall...

Then we ran.

Teaching at a private Christian school
She's just so tone-deaf; it's so un-cool
