Eternal Questions
With less than perfect rhyme the cherubim
Proclaim the life and times of Theremin.
But what explains this assonancial blunder?
Were they confused by God’s Essential Thunder?
Or is the whirring Music of the Spheres
Disrupted when a theremin appears,
And this disturbs rhyming birthday hymn
Intoned by the eternal cherubim?
