“Half the fun is plan to plan”

“Voodoo girl

But she knows she has a curse on her,
a curse she cannot win.

the pins stick farther in.”

“The Girl With Many Eyes
One day in the park
I had quite a surprise.
I met a girl
who had many eyes.

She was really quite pretty
(and also quite shocking!)
and I noticed she had a mouth,
so we ended up talking.

We talked about flowers,
and her poetry classes,
and the problems she'd have
if she ever wore glasses.

It's great to know a girl
who has so many eyes,
but you really get wet
when she breaks down and cries.”

is that your son is the result
of an old pharaoh's curse.”
