6° of separation

There are those who maintain that
all people on this planet are six
or less social connections apart…

Six Degrees of Separation...eh?

Well, maybe...

When I was but a lass of nine
in 1953...

The Queen visited Panama...
and Mother went to tea...

So, it's clear to me...of six degrees,
I met the Queen in three.

Mayhap there's something to this.
You want to try and see…
how closely you're
connected…

to some person well-known
...or infamous…
now, or historically?
