At a local SI DaDa event a few years ago I made (and sang) a Tzara Cutup version of..."Me to game out take the ball" --so much better, livelier, than the original.

That game was invented by Tristan Tzara (the Tzar of Love aka Sammy Rosenthal)about a hundred years ago at the Cafe Voltaire in Trieste. James Joyce was in the audience. For it to work, everyone needs to have consumed three or four drinks and then it will be more fun. (Twice I tried it out on morning college classes about a decade ago and the students thought I was plain whacko.) The theme of first sexual experince should be a real Howl (the title of one of Tzara's most accomplished newspaper collages, now owned by the city of Chicago Metropolitan Museum). Nice poem!
