“Fire and Ice” by Robert Frost [w/ Audio]

Some say the world will end in fire,
Some say in ice.
From what I've tasted of desire
I hold with those who favor fire.
But if it had to perish twice,
I think I know enough of hate
To say that for destruction ice
Is also great
And would suffice.

PROMPT: Unique

Which aspects do you think makes a person unique?

Genetic code and life story.

PROMPT: Named After

If you could have something named after you, what would it be?

Maybe an atomic bomb. It would be nice to get in the last word.

“Memory” by William Butler Yeats [w/ Audio]

One had a lovely face,
And two or three had charm,
But charm and face were in vain
Because the mountain grass
Cannot but keep the form
Where the mountain hare has lain.

Deer Mind [Haiku]

the deer goes still.
I wonder, is its mind still,
or in a sprint?

Statistician Limerick

The police questioned an old statistician
Whose department had suffered attrition.
"My memo was wrecked
by auto-correct:
Distribution of 'Poisson' became 'Poison.'"
