'Cos I Are A Poet

In a world where daVinci (so cute)
Gave us the first parachute
I hope that galoots
Invented ballutes.

    I don't know if it's spelled the same, but when I was in the Navy, a ballute was a rotten egg delicacy from the Phillipines; they were buried underground to ferment in the same manner as kimchee, as I was given to understand. May have just been a yarn.

    I could not eat it. It would make me sad for the baby duck.

    Then there's a game they used to play in bars in the Philippines called "smile."...

    Well, enough about the Phillipines...
