Notes About The Poem

The Mystery of Humpty Dumpty Has Been Cracked

Humpty Dumpty never ever sat on a wall In reality he was very much an odd ball I understand he drank far too much alcohol And he also suffered from high cholesterol He switched places, someone was his fall guy And this fall guy told everyone that he could fly His head got smashed in, the eggspert did die Now he’s been scrambled and resides in the sky In truth Humpty’s deception could never be foiled for if he sits out in the sun he’d soon be hard boiled the mystery of humpty Dumpty Contest sponsored by Faraz Ajmal 6/28/18

A nice spin on an old tale the flow starts off a bit out, but has a wicked sense of humour and a cool epilogue to boot well done Tim
