Milton Berle (by Mitch Sisskind)

Young lady, does the name Milton Berle

Have any particular significance for you? 

Does the name Milton Berle ring a bell?

I thought not, so I’ve got news for you.

Milton Berle in the early 1950s almost

Single-handedly multiplied the number 

Of American television sets from only

500,000 to 26 million of the boob tubes;

Without Milton Berle there would be 

No television as we know it, let alone

The TikToc, FlipTop, or what have you.

Alas, the wheel of life is ever turning.

You know nothing of Milton Berle. 

How about Cosmo Iacavazzi?
