Just One Question...

was she any good?

Trompe L'oeil

One day it was brought to your attention that
your head is hollow;
you didn't like that,
so you found a pretty thing and
tossed her in.
Then you realized that pretty things tend
to talk your ears off,
so you grabbed some newspaper, tore it up, and
shoved it in.
You soon discovered that your head
was instead
filled with useless head-lines,
like:
"Boy with black banana becomes blind!"
and,
"Research shows that people are unhappy."
You needed something to drown out the
bad news,
so you popped the cap off a couple of
bottles
and poured them in.
Sure,
your head was,
of course,
still hollow;
but you forgot about it.
That's good enough for you.
