I have added a comment there pointing to the info about this artist I used to point to here. Only work by him used here so far.
Hendrik was the discoverer of the Head Back Reflector. It made those new fangled ear trumpets obsolete. He could now hear a mouse scratching two rooms away!
Hendrik, having fruitlessly exhausted all other avenues, decided to make a bold move and try one of those kinky websites. This was his dating profile pic titled “Hendrik on the half shell.” Hobbies include: digging for clams, long walks on the beach, and polishing bed knobs.

/// “Portrait of a Man”— somewhat surreal.
What conceals can, if studied, reveal.
His red mustache and beard
eclipsed how he appeared,
and kept samples of every past meal.

Hendrik discovered the principle of gravity 19 years before Newton. But he realized it with his hair, not an apple.

By not shaving he saved phe price of a razor and shaving soap. He also saved the price of a tie.

The whiskbroom that hangs from his chin/
Obscures an adorable grin./
You probably knew/
That the darn thing was grew/
To distinguish himself from his twin.///
It started out just as a stubble/
But he quickly outdistanced his “double”../
Who was growing his own/
But was swiftly outgrown:/
That’s when he thought: “Shave? Why take the trouble ?”

In the long run, there’s simply no telling/
Where it’s going if it keeps on swelling:/
But his wife is concerned/
For she fears she’ll be spurned/
When it squeezes them out of their dwelling..

What makes the beard truly unique/
(And their future distressingly bleak)/
With domestic dissension/
I neglected to mention:/
It’s been growing for barely a week..
Slowly, he turned... 11 days ago
Its amazing what a nit comb will do!

Once he got rid of the spiders, beetles, and that nasty little flying thing he didn’t even recognize, his beard finally was presentable.

He signed himself “Baked in Alaska”/
But he’s much too shy ever to ask a/
Girl to join him for sex/
(He’s an Oedipus Rex)/
As for “beach walks” – he lives in Nebraska.

Some thought he was putting on airs,
But he learned to endure their rude stares.
He was first in his nation
To own a kapok plantation,
and was merely displaying his wares.
