discovered his theorem,
he and the Pythagoreans
went chanting through
the hills of ancient Greece:
Mrs. Pythagoras was standing
in the doorway
when he got home,
shaking her head.
"You've got it backwards.
Go from the smallest
to the largest:
"It's alphabetically correct and has a nicer flow to it."
The man had no choice but to agree
for the simple reason that history
proved the woman was correct.
