Right on the Marcus                                                            
 
Biggledy-wiggledy
Marcus Aurelius
once gave an order that
didn’t make sense.
 
Semi-sarcastically,
servants said, “Either he
really is brilliant Au-
relius dense.”
 
 
Defying Gravidy
 
Piety quiety
Mary of Nazareth
struggled to fathom her
curious lot.
 
Was it a miracle?
Parthenogenesis?
She was expecting! (Though
Joseph was not.)
