Poetry for Neanderthals Pop Culture Edition It is nice to be a poet. And it is also nice to be a Neanderthal. But it is less nice to be both at the same time... As a poet, you like to recite profound prose, such as: The imposing Woolly Mammoth mocks my small, hairless body. But as a Neanderthal, you can only say: Big strong thing with much hair laughs at me for me is small and bald. Your problem is that, as a Neanderthal, you don’t know any words with more than one syllable. The problem for your team is that they have to listen to a Neanderthal reciting poetry.
