This Weird World's Weird Ways - I

A banana stuck on to wall Turning out a piece of art mighty tall, When sold for hundred twenty grand, It shakes up art world's pricy ground. The artist was the same old hat That had made a golden toilet— Cast in solid gold, not token, That later got from a palace stolen. A banana is many things To many, one that strange songs sings, And a symbol of global trade, And always a butt of jokes banal made. A double entendre oft sour, A classic ruse for dull humour Making many go banana— A humour damp like bath sauna! Yet, even for such a job so banal, The artist struggled, scratching head, And one Eureka day woke up and said: Ah live banana on a wall panel! _____________________________________ Happenings | 22.12.2019 | Topic: humour, art, grotesque
