Dumbstruck-Dk

Example for my contest.


DUMBSTRUCK-DK

I drove past this girl...on Sunset & Vine 
I couldn't see her face...so I beeped at her behind 
When she turned around...I nearly hit a caravan 
Because the girl that I had beeped at...was an ugly long-haired man
 
So I drove on down the road...and I passed a lonesome guy 
There was something attractive about him...and I admit, it caught my eye 
When he turned around...I nearly hit a pick-up truck
Because a beautiful girl turned around...so I felt a bit- dumbstruck!

Two in a row, but you don't need glasses, sometimes you can't tell right away even face to face. Good one, Charlie.

Hehe! Find a dark quiet street, park it, and finish your flask of Courvoisier and call it a night. A great example, truth-betold, taxing to top, thanks my friend, Aloha!

Hello Charles Messina, it is weird for boys to dress as girls. Or girls as boys. It is strange. Enjoy your day my friend.

Darlene, in today's world. With the way boys dress like girs and girls dress like boys it's not as slim of odds as you might think (lol) Have a nice evening my friend. Charlie
