Verse And Worse

Random Wit, Errant Rhyme. Not A Literary Crime

Professor Turner
Lit the bunsen burner
But the angle of his pose
Meant that he singed his nose

  7. I can smell the singeing
    And here the whinging
    Messing with a tilted burner
    A soar nose will earn ya!

  9. He ran like mad for some soothing water
    To cool his red hot hurting snorter
    And instead of feeling mildly placid
    He'd made it worse with sulphuric acid
    He said, "Quick someone turn on the tap
    I've had a nasty awful mishap!
    Then he felt coming a big sneeze
    And off his head did his hooter breeze.
