Story 20
Apt to Be Tongue Trapped
Likely or suited means apt
To become suited means adapt
Covered is the same as wrapped
And wrapped is the same as wrapt
Knocked is the same as rapped
But rapped is not the same as rapt
Enchanted, though, is the same as rapt
Story 21
Ass to Sass
There is:
A hee-haw ass A deadly gas A good-looking lass
A natural gas A large mass
A fish bass A petroleum gas A bulky mass
A looking glass A nup•tial mass
A metal brass An optical glass A re•qui•em mass
A commanding brass An crystal glass A per•mis•sion pass
An impudent brass And a drinking glass An ad•van•cing pass
A dull class A green grass A refusing pass
A college class A musical Blue grass An attempting pass
And a stupid crass A Kentucky Blue Grass A flirtatious pass
A Bermuda Grass A mountain pass
And a Zoyzia Grass And a back-talking sass
