/// Henrik Fleming, the seagoing Swede,
was an Admiral— well-known indeed.
He would sail into battle
with his large silver rattle,
and by rattling foes, he’d succeed.
Henric was about to throw down the gauntlet and prepare for a mariachi band showdown.
Must have been something I ate that gives me these awful plot lines.
Billy Gibbons’ ancestor?
The artist had to work fast /
To avoid the withering blast !/
The old style grenade/
has a fuse that’s delayed -/
but the model’s in a full-body cast.
The artist had been reassured/
That his sitter was “combat-inured”/
And was fully aware/
Of what he had there:/
A grenade in the shape of a gourd.
His face-locks deserve an award or prize… or both.
That’s actually someone else’s right arm reaching into the portrait. That person intends to reach into Henrik’s pocket, for a quick game of pocket pool (how quick depends on Henrik).
They said that black makes you look thinner, so he had the artist paint him in a lightless void.
