Verse And Worse

Random Wit, Errant Rhyme. Not A Literary Crime

My maternal uncle Bill designed never-ending pistons
But he said he was baffled when they never went the distance
So he turned his attention to electric cars
His last postcard said he was on his way to Mars

He was the life of the party
And oh those pistons ran hardy
But he was the only one there
Because on Mars, brother, there ain't no air!
