    Excuse me young man,
    I can't help but notice.
    That cut on your face,
    Was it made by a straight?

    Why yes, yes it was Sir.
    A sad tale of woe 'tis (pretty good rhyme, no? )
    Yet here, take a seat,
    And I'll tell of my fate.

    I shave ev'ry day with a
    Straight made of fine steel.
    No scratch on its scales
    And the blade's seen no rust.

    But this morning while shaving
    A prick there I did feel
    When a young lady entered,
    And showed me her bust

    Of a young Isaac Newton.
    Twas carved out of granite
    An angular visage
    With eyes ever eager

    Said I to the lady
    "Miss I'm a fan, it
    appears you have kept
    the head wrapped in your beaver

    skin hat. Did you know
    He invented the laws
    that govern the motion
    of planets and stars?"

    Said she "Yes I know
    Though I see there are flaws
    when considering things
    when they travel real fars."

    So shocked was I by
    her math'matical ability
    My razor it slipped
    In its course 'pon my cheek.

    And that, my dear Sir
    Is my tale of relativity
    and the topic upon which
    We do currently speak!

    James.

    I rest my case.
