Ah, the rhymes we could have made
about your name, Losantiville!
A town around a river mouth,
a wooden fort upon your hills,
a soggy patch called Turkey Bottom.
Later, drawing hogs from Indiana
to their end, Porkopolis,
but you were always classical
with seven hills, the she-wolf and
a matching name, my Cincinnati.
