Einstein’s face: the universal ikon
The single signifier signing brilliance
We know how Einstein looks, but not Newton
Who has Bach or Swedenborg’s appearance
And all are equal in intelligence
But it is Einstein’s face we see as genius
Leibnitz or Descartes don’t stand a chance
For smarts, it’s only Einstein’s face for us
His smile, mustache, and wild hair all a fuss
