Up Up the Fly Away Wig Doth Go Revisited and Revised March 10th, 2022

Up up the fly away wig doth go revisited and revised March 10th, 2022... Went off for hair raising shindig donning noggin of villager in Nigg (historic county of Ross-shire, historic region of Ross and Cromarty, northeast coast of Scotland). Somehow postiche crossed the big pond once belonged to magician, who could create static electricity waving wand across artificial tresses colored blond, which wizard in disguise did abscond with priceless peruke (archaic word for periwig) cuz said luxurious locks once belonged to Dolly Parton. Though I embellished and expounded from original poem still probably not very clear, nevertheless toil onward if ye dare. Upon occasion the missus doth plop squat foursquare on her plump derriere brandishes scissors to keep hair closely cropped to her scalp. Once upon a time, not very long ago somewhere over the rainbow within the Milky Way Galaxy, she managed plying chutzpah, guts and moxie to scare connive, finagle, inveigle, et cetera, an unused wig another tenant at Highland Manor Apartments here (Compact, low slung, and well maintained dwellings by big booted (size 14) previous onsite natural marvel property manager Kevin Bair him with shiny pate, the former onsite jack (jilted) of all trades handyman balladeer crooning of Jen Tra Fide units made like new for those in despair low cost affordable renting facilities though not by a near and/or far cry ritzy as luxury places named Bel Air, but energy efficient air tight, quieter than a cemetary). Anyway, zee spouse I dare say casts a shadow clear the size of Rhode Island, and chanced to acquire ratty noggin head gear, she did need toupee joost a dime, and quickly realized shear hideousness, sans "FAKE" hirsute wig required ample tender loving care, thus she betook what closely resembled skinned hide of a distant forebear, (or perhaps def leppard) to Liberty thrift store, but encountered manic tear roar, when enroute, to said rectilinear structure, out car window flew wig landing inaccessible risking life or limb mighty size wife easily deflected career ring vehicles (imagine mini measle lee Andre the Giant) despite drivers abruptly halting to stare as pint size super woman gingerly didst ensnare tire worn and tread full sorry excuse for those claiming going bald unfair even if renaming opposite of being hirsute male/female pattern receding hairline all the way back to nape of neck. Interesting how odd distribution of atavistic fur witnesses enough coily kinks donning nether regions of body flowing to ground within a year.
