    /// Though he wears ornate armor of black

    and Zendaya’s wig curled down his back,

    you can tell by his face

    he’s that famed flying ace

    from the old comic strip, Smilin’ Jack.

    /// A Field Marshall of valor and passion,

    Heinrich’s foes in a battle turned ashen.

    Those who’ve fought often tell

    that to make war is Hell,

    but for Heinrich, it seems, war is fashion.

    Le Comte de Coiffure is our topic

    A fellow most frightfully “fopic”.

    He takes six hours to dry..

    Three more spray to apply..

    And his tips are downright microscopic.

    Once Heinrich grew that mustache, his heterosexuality was never questioned again.

    /// Vain Sir Percy did not spare the whip.

    He was harsh with the men in his grip.

    One was sick of his crap.

    Percy woke from his nap

    with some permanent ink on his lip.

    /// Percy noticed it when he undressed,

    and he loved it! It gave his face “zest.”

    He resolved to grow hair

    where those lines were drawn there.

    Then he saw the d!ck drawn on his chest.
