Travesty

Train so luxurious in the outside but with wooden interior void of beauty
Ravishing blond with a bad communication skill
Age supposedly a twin to maturity, grey hair covering a teenage mind
Viewing a church priest making merry in the town’s brothel
Estimate of Gold valued at the prize of red sand
Stupid minds in leadership to a learned and wise society
Ten kilograms is the weight of the latest and most modern crane
‘Yuck’ is the reaction when the expected quality is missing or adulterated.

Funom: I have just read and enjoyed your last 11 rhymes but have not commented until now. You do wonderful work but most of it is outside of my understanding as an old Iowa farm boy. In "Travesty" I found both tears and laughter. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and talent with all of us on the Soup. oldbuck
