#4 "Well, my telephone rang, it would not stop
It’s President Kennedy calling me up
He said, “My friend, Bob
What do we need to make the country grow?”
I said, “My friend, John; Brigitte Bardot
Anita Ekberg
Sophia Loren”
Country'll grow"
Bob Dylan, 'I Shall Be Free'

#8 Here, shot while she swam on the Swannee,
Anita, long, nekkid, and brawny
As polliwogs sang,
"Get a load of Miss Thing!"
"A black swan she is not."
"Way too scrawny."

A Buoyant Personality Weighed Down? Poor Deportment? Can't quite pull it together. Maybe in rime royal...

#9 Or maybe not.

Congress of Fowles: Averse to Chaucer

Descending to Earth incognita
[a titmouse here tweets, "It's Anita!"]
She grabs by the neck
All the usual dreck,
Trumpets, "Hiya, guys! I'll be your Leda!"

Or how about nock/flock?
