Ogee Whiz

So glad to be making acrostic poems again!

Ogee Whiz

Old fine Edifices glow

Gingerbreading quells uh-oh

Edgy edges end ennui

E-Z …dubya ex wye Z

One type of Ogee is a cutout shape involving both convex and concave curvature. The ogee arches sketched above have apical points.

Gingerbreading is use of a motif for trim to enhance windows or ledges. Some older architecture in downtown Phoenix features gingerbreading.

“Ogee Whiz” is pun-translatable into “Oh, Gee Whiz.” That’s a Bad Pun, but a worse one would be if I tagged a snowblank with the contents of my bladder with the monogram “OG.” It would not stand for “Original Gangsta” nor “Old Guy” but would be simply OG, and since it would be made from urine, colloquially known as Whiz, it would be OG Whiz.
