[stylist] complte this poem?

[Angela fowler]

There was a blind man of Mulvaine,
he tapped everywhere with his cane;

His two-point-touch walkin'
set the paternals to talkin'; 
It drove them completely insane!

We must put him in his place,
Bring him back to our custodial base,
This independent blind man of Nulvaine. 

But the blind man of Nulvaine,
Kept tapping right along with his cane!
He ignored their fools chatter,
For to him it made no matter,
He had escaped their sinister domain.

	Needs work, but it was the best I could come up with right off the
top of my head.

very good Lori!
I wonder how often "rome" is taken for "home!"
