Ha! Nice one, Douglas. A legit rhyme for cubes in your neck of the woods and a resonant last line worthy of a better cause. (Ann, you beat me to it.)
What with this and Chris O' C's haikube (thank you, Brian) and Rob and others' offerings it feels like the birth of a notion, the Cubist School of Comic and Curious Verse.
Incidentally, I think OXO is still around, but the UNOX advertised on enamel signs left over from previous decades in my youth ,and which provided predictable scope for schoolboy wit, is not, and probably wasn't then, whatever it was. A distant cousin of SPAM, perhaps, such as you can still buy?
