Verbose Monotony (Thomas Jacob)

A man who never failed to please
Put you at ease, did John Verghese.
A man so true, a man so nice
But alas, logic was his vice.

"Hey John Verghese, 'geese' is plural
but you are just one, not many!"
A singular person in logic's noose
He changed his name, to John Vergoose.

Yay! Wordplay, my favorite. Both poems are similar, but the first for whatever reason has a special zing.

If John Vergander had married writer Virginia Woolf, would he turn into a Ver-Woolf? (Aoooooooo)

Mukarrar, as the man said before..
