[Ads-l] "We must increase our busts!"

[W Brewer]

JB: << wouldn't the first line scan better... Five iambs better fits... >>
WB: One of the variants cited is << develop our (my) bust(s) >>.
It only makes sense to me as << we MUST, we MUST, DEE-vell-UP our BUSTS >>,
suggesting upward thrusting bazooms.
