Once upon a Tuesday
I met a man named Sam
Applying for a loan I was
At the bank in Wankerolam

The jovial bald head banker
His brows knitted tightly
Asked me with a pleasing voice
If I had spelt my last name rightly

I have never seen a name like this
In all my years of loaning
Let us try to pronounce it
Here we go and no postponing

Let us see...it is Kells
Or mayhap it is Kels
Like the letter of the alphabet
Yes, that somewhat gells

A few days flowed onward
And I was perusing my mail
The bank had okayed the loan
But it included tradition without fail

My new name by their writ
Was changed to Steven Bell
And truly feeling in my mind
A thousand curses all pell-mell

Always always always the same
The typo and the error
An obtuse lampoon of a noble name
A madness beyond compare

But let us not harbor rancor
We should seek the calm within
Although it must be noted
Altering one's name dishonors kin

And so I wrote to Wankerolam
A message sweet and nice
I did not call them assassins
Calm words would here suffice

On an otherwise sunny day
A response from the bank delivered hence
Clear, concise and neatly typed
A missive that made me tense

From your loyal and trustful bank
Our desire to do what is right compels
In future times all will be amended
We apologise profusely STEVEN BELLS

Thanks, Zeno :thumbup:


Once their typo is in the system,
Your name is changed for life.
Next they will say I'm not a citizen,
Somehow, it's not worth the strife.
