A blogger named Mig posed the query,
“Are limericks really so scary?
“A prize must be granted!”
His readership chanted
In unison, “Give it to Perry!”

Whose readers began to grow wary.
His prolific storm
In limerick form
Was too much for one Iles to carry.

Can’t quite figure out what is wrong
It seems most absurd
But my friends all concurred:
We don’t know the words to the song.

Your ennui a cruel overlord,
Eschew the chitchat;
Just fuck with the cat.
Annoyance is its own reward.

And the ladies would never take true stock
For his natural charm
was as thick as you arm
So he suffered from permanent blue cock.

They talked to it, asking its course.
“Quo vadis?” They cried
“Fuck off!” it replied
“That’s Latin, not Greek, we’ll use force.”

Complained about unequal care
Led Zeppelin’s stairway
Was a pretty unfair way
Of getting disabled folk there

Are sprinkled with spring daffodils
In Wordsworth’s invective
From a mid-lake perspective
They gave him spectacular thrills

Through destruction and death and the like
They’d have saved themselves time
And got there just fine
If they’d thought about stealing a bike.

For attempting to trans-genre-ate
Be it country ‘n’ metal
Or death and black petal-
Strewn beds for your Valentine’s date
