Street Sign Rhyme

Everything rhymes during Poetry Month.  :-)
This street sign in Provincetown, MA
should have been named for Benjamin Lee Whorf (1897 - 1941).
Whorf was an American linguist.
He is widely known for his ideas about linguistic relativity,
the hypothesis that language influences thought.
Hail, Benjamin Lee Whorf!

Not to be confused with Worf from Star Trek,
clearly a superior linguist in is own right.   :-)
