Limerick Lamentation
“Don’t get me wrong. I like being tall . . . but not THAT tall.”
There once was a girl named Doreen
Who was as tall as a mutant string bean
Even when kneeling
Her head hit the ceiling
And now both her ears have gangrene

Poor Doreen. She would not have that problem if she was as short as I am.
That rhymed too. 
Ha ha ! Imelda. I’m guessing you’re about 5′ 2″ just like me!
Doreen needs an antibiotic.
Gangrene made her ears go psychotic.
Her boyfriend lay dead
At the foot of her bed
‘Cause he found her green lobes so erotic.
Haha Bravo Rick! She sounds even more fetching than the Star Trek Green Girl!
And I started your book, Becomes the Happy Man, yesterday, and I have to say it’s the most original book I’ve ever read! And so far soo good!
Great!
I didn’t want to say anything before you started it, but I was curious what you would think of it at first. Most readers say they find it a bit difficult in the beginning but after a chapter or two they get into it. But you already knew it was “provocatively lean” I think you said, so you had an idea going into it what to expect. I’m very pleased you’re reading it!
Yes, I did have an idea going in that it was going to be different. (Well even the title is completely different which I love.) I was delighted when it started to take a turn for the worse! And the humor in it is very satisfying. As a writer, you’ve definitely honed your craft.
Thanks for the compliment!
I hope you find the quality consistent throughout.
Nothing like a little limericking to get the morning started right!
So glad you liked it!
There once was a writer named Vernon
Her Peanuts was always a-churning
The people she doodles
The lines look like noodles
I roar and for more I be yearning!! : )
LOL Mark!! Bravo! I love it. I’m going to have to post this up on my wall! How wonderful it is! And they do all look like noodles! I think Peanuts brain folds are naturally curly!!
