Pablo quick on the take
Adorable Dora went for a mani,
insisted of course on matching her dress.
How she felt magnificently dapper and regal
in her green velvet, walking high like noblesse.
Soon was it she remembered
that her closet was bare to the bone
and this was the only green
that she owned.
( Referring to Pablo Picasso's painting "Dora Maar with Green Fingernails" )
