When is a knot not a knot?
Thoough I ponder a lot,
I admit I know not,
The question is wrought,
With perils unsought,
Can a spot be a knot?
Or a knot be a spot?
Or not?
Perhaps a spot ought,
To not be a knot,
But what of a dot?
Can a dot be a knot?
Or a knot be a dot?
A knot is a spot is a dot?
I think not,
The answer I fear,
Is really quite clear,
A knot is a knot is a knot,
Except when its not.

Normally, I do not enjoy poetry that rhymes, however I am too busy laughing to dislike this.

Great Job.
