"An Old Man from Vasad who had Five Penises also Suffered from Runny Nose"*
 
 
 
It's not possible.
An old man from Vasad
cannot have blue eyes.
 
Screw the disbelievers.
He does have blue eyes
and five penises and six
fingers on one hand.
 
Chew on that now.
He sits spread on mellow
yellow, his bald head
demurely veiled.
 
The lines failed him.
 
But you can see skies,
wise skies.
No, I never
tell lies. See that view, where crows
once flew and a cow sits now.
 
I love that old man
with the blue nose
and the straight stare
and let's give him his due:
 
He didn't stick
those penises with glue.
They just grew
and grew and grew.
