Ur's santurs skirl. One chap (no churl: friends call 'im Burl, the Earl of Twirl) dons skirts o' pearl. Tight folds unfurl to form a curl. Burl twirls; skirts swirl. (‘Twere me...? I’d hurl.)
“’Tis but,” says Merlin, ”psycho-neur’l.” Still, dervish, whirlin' gets the girl -- not urban: rur'l! From Russia (Ur'l)... a gal call'd Shirl. (This blather...? As per Lawrence Durr'll.)

New Prosopogostichs: Lenny Bruce
Not
unpleasant to know…? Mr.
Bruce,
one whose humor’s been label'd ab-
struse.
True: Len's gambols weren’t no Mother
Goose

juice
from the pleasant-to-know Mr.
Bruce.
Of comedians, Lenny's the
Zeus.
* Williams, Pryor and Carlin et al.
