Ode to Ben, nude or not
electricity poem for Mikeydred's Unofficial Challenge

The key to our lights
Began with a kite
Ben was a mighty scientist
also known as a nudist
We don’t know if during
His lightning luring
If he wore clothes
Or perhaps was exposed -
Was he taking an "air bath"
As the kite rose above his path?
In either case, the key and kite
created sparks for light
Electricity was begun
Was it with a bare bum?
