BigV I think you are missing a career as a poet. When I read the above I noticed that if you start at one point you get a limerick. Start at another and you get Seuss.

The limerick

You can't live in Ballard and not have lutefisk
(you'd probably be driven out)
It is cod cured in lye
The mystery of why
you don't die from poisoning is intact.

Seuss

It is cod cured in lye.
The mystery of why
you don't die from poisoning is intact.
However, it's a dish that you should try.

(one minor change for scansion)

If you can do that subconsciously, think what you could do when you were trying.
