Consider this an invitation
To tell all the world,
In a blog like a banner
That to all has been unfurled.

Maybe it’ll say
“Mission Accomplished”
Like a former president
Who that had wished.

Or maybe you could
Make a movie,
Get a guy named Rufus
To make the soundtrack groovy.

Or maybe you will
Write about dinner
Because there aren’t enough foodie blogs
And a new one will be a winner.

Limerick Friday #29

There once was a man named Morgan
He ate so much pizza he needed a new organ
He screamed in vowels
When they took his bowels
And then he stormed out to find a bear in Oregon.

Sometimes I feel like a mayor
Of a foreclosed state.
Everyone is bankrupt,
The protests are full of hate.

At those times
It’s up to me to nominate
Someone not just not loathsome
But someone actually great.

So you’ll use a walker
To shuffle into the barn,
And I’ll give you the bad news,
The IRS are taking the farm.

What hope will we have then?
Just half hopes of sisters and a brother.
You’d suggest we raise an army,
But I’d say we shouldn’t even bother.

Limerick Friday #28

There once was an ape who had a woman in the wing
They got attached without any string
Their affair was animal
Until it turned cannibal
And now they just smile like housewives and say it was a fling.
