Today’s Jumble haiku:

“Trite Choice”
Hiccups always weigh
oddly in opera—good
for much levity.

I notice you have not been using them recently, so I’ll give myself a break.

Choose your guests wisely - any noise during the Aida death scene will spoil the effect and the diva will not be in the
ReplyDeleteRight Voice
Thoroughly I weighed my choice,
Though I knew my uncle would rejoice
To join me in my opera box.
It would be so unorthodox
If he hiccuped due to excess food.
The ensuing levity would spoil the mood;
The audience should be subdued.
OMK- given the J words we received today, it is not surprising that we created offerings with a similar theme of levity at the opera. Can you imagine hiccups in the Aida score!
ReplyDeleteOMK- I suspect you could tell stories of hiccups or other audience interruptions during your acting career.
ReplyDelete"Terrific Tenor"
ReplyDeletePete was polite and proper,
and a tenor at the opera.
One day he suffered a hiccup,
which made it hard to pick up.
But although this created some levity,
the problem was resolved with brevity.
His fans did him a hero weigh
and cheered him loudly at every play.
They considered him the right choice,
because he had a terrific voice.
Good to see his problem was handled “with brevity,” Misty—for Pete’s sake!
ReplyDeleteNice rhyming title, CEh!
I suppose the only solution to your Uncle dilemma is to promise to treat him to dinner after the performance.
~ OMK
Actually, not, CEh!.
ReplyDeleteThe only time I can recall such rude interrupts is in social settings. Or in boring high school classes.
Even in HS amateur plays, where you might suppose such things as hiccups, burps, and fake farts would occur, we had a very strict drama teacher.
No one would ever think of crossing the line.

Misty- Pete sounds like a wonderful tenor. Glad his hiccup problem was solved.
ReplyDeleteOMK- I am surprised, but happy that you had no experiences of rude audiences. Perhaps today, it would be cellphones ringing in the middle of a dramatic scene.
