Head Lines, 13



Wayne’s World

Wayne was a little thick upstairs—
And some called him an oaf.
His brain? A mass of sticky dough,
A never-rising loaf.

Delores’ Decision

The time arrived—the SAT—
And so, just for the nonce,
Delores figured for the tests
She’d exercise her bonce.[1]



[1] Brit slang for head or skull. 1860-65.

Jeff’s Rocky Meal

A starving Jeff devoured the rock—
It was uranium—
And had a permanent effect
Inside his cranium.

George’s iVow

Sick of iPhones and the rest, George
Vowed he would live cell-free.
Friends and neighbors realized that
Bats were in his belfry.

Oops

Perhaps I should apologize?
I know I got here late.
But I have limitations, man,
Inside my rocky pate.

Sam’s Problem


The women all agreed that Sam
Was just a little dull.
There wasn't too much substance there
Inside sad Sammy’s skull.

Rhonda’s Regret

When Rhonda climbed the palm tree, she
Began to preen and strut—
Which wasn’t wise because she fell
And cracked her coconut.
