Story 155
Gigged
So prim and proper was Miss Kreig that some said she was a
stuffy prig. But then there came a Russian shindig whereat
she drank vodka swig after swig. And on her knees she danced
a jig, stuffing her face with dates and a fig.
As if this weren't enough, she called the Czar a "Fascist pig," struck him with an
olive twig, then dared to pull off the Czarina's horsehair wig. For this Miss Kreig
was given “life” in a Russian brig.
Story 156
Jack and Jill
Jack and Jill went up the hill
to fish for brill in a swilling rill.
However, they caught nil.
And when they came down, they came down
with a chill and began to feel ill. So then
their mother served them soup with dill
and gave them each a get- well pill.
