The Exquisite Corpse Two

The Wounded woman disturbed the guillotine with blond hair 



I found this sentence to be very difficult, it just sounds so serious, and there aren't any guillotines around Huntsville. 
Walking around, this bush reminded me of my sentence in that the very tops were lighter in colour reminding me of the blond hair part of the sentence, and the bush as a whole looks scruffy and disorderly, almost as if it were disturbed.
