Premium Member Sixty Years, Oh My

Skinny as Twiggy was in
    Flat as a board
  Not a millimeter sticking out
    Not even her pout

  Now it's all about curves
    And 'bubble-butts'
  Sticking out as far down there
    As a dislocated jaw might jut

  Friends, as far as this man's concerned
    ~ Either way, intimacy's spurned

For My Germany Bread Friends and Fiends

For My Germany Bread Friends and Fiends

About bread what we found to be so surprising,
Flour yeast seemed to find much trouble rising; 
Oh my Lord,
Flat as a board;
Now have been in agony and are aggrandizing.
