There’s a cyst on his wrist
I insist, I insist!
There’s a cyst on his wrist
Announced Bartholomew Griffinelbist
Yelling and pounding the air with his fist
Oh dear, what a shame, I just can’t resist
To ask who it is with cyst in his wrist
It is he of the cube, said Griffinelbist,
The one dubbed the cubing adventurer-ist
‘Tis a shame that his wrist seems so badly kissed
Under the skin a boulder from ole Sisyphus
Through pain and discomfort and a drive through the mist
To the surgeon he went, seeking help to enlist
Any method to erase all that seemed to exist
In connection with the giant cyst in his wrist
Excise it, we’ll do, the surgeon he hissed
With the help of a good anesthesiologist
On Thursday upcoming au revoir to the cyst
To that bump that surely will never be missed
Concluded Bartholomew Griffinelbist
