In Which I Tease The Paradise Tossed Boys Just A Little Bit

My name does not seem that hard to pronounce,

But it was rendered as it is by one

Most hard to gainsay (Gladys Belle, who'd pounce

I'm sure, on John and Cameron -- no fun

To be had 'neath my grandma's glare). I'm told

It once rhymed with a British store, but now

It's with a phrase like "Hate Your God" (I hold

That as the funniest, so that is how

I tell people to say it). That is not

What I am here to sonnetize today,

However. What I really find as hot

Is listening to great big nerds at play.

The Paradise Tossed podcast with me, here,

Is live right now! Such giggling and such cheer!
