[Dangnabbit -woke up too early.....worth the effort to clean up the metre?....Nah...back to bed...]


Homer's Martini Mistake

If little white lies
And stout Spanish thighs,
Beauty and truth,
Booty, vermouth,
Cortez and all his men
On a peak in Darien
Were laid end to end
Balboa wouldn't have been
Surprised or surmised

Btw., "stallholders" just plain souks.
