Eureka

A freshly wrought nose nodule
Can hold a man in rapture
The battle long and arduous
Then finally the capture

Now wet or dry the nodule
Will fix upon a finger
And like some precious pearl or stone
The man will with it linger

Suddenly the nodule
Propelled and skyward bound
Trajectory uncertain
Will land without a sound

Scarlet,

“Eureka” is what Archimedes yelled running through the crowded streets of Syrancuse in after taking a bath and discovering his great principal.

It was a great discovery--I'm afraid this isn’t.
