The director of the new play 'Assertions'
Held auditions for the lead female role.
To avoid any assertions of casting aspersions 
He asked all hopefuls to dress as nasturtiums.
The role called for a lady so delicious and yummy
That the audience would want to gobble her up,
Like real nasturtiums with edible flowers and leaves.
