Your saucy entries always make me laugh. Thanks for the nod, Mig. I had sourdough starter once but my roommate thought it was something moldy and she threw it out. That was 40 years ago and I haven’t really felt the need for a new batch. Your bagels look delicious tho.

Once found his line caught and imperiled.
He sounded the bottom
And found he had caught him
The wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald!

The charioteers’ savage views.
He had them arrested;
Their fans all protested,
And mobbed with the Greens and the Blues

If they don’t make me King, I’ll yell and I’ll scream. Stolen election! Stolen election!

Who provides me with scant satisfachshund
She’s worse than the cat
She shat on the mat
So I cursed her in pure Anglo Sachshund

With Caesar she was openly hostile
When he fathered her a son
She said her battles were done
Until bitten by a nasty reptile

Ran a motel with low rates
If you rented a room
You sealed your doom
And ended up at the pearly gates

Or drunken Australians
Like outer space aliens
But with form I like playing the clown
I’m a man of both skill and renown

Who cares, if to use it you’re keen
In limerick form
it complies with the norm
And sticks to the brief of the scheme.

Now this queue that I’m in feels quite morbid.
For a concert, it’s not,
I’m in line for a shot,
In the hope that I don’t contract COVID.

When failing to install a tsar:
When Trump said “Go home”
They emptied the dome
And left in the same fucking car.

This awful new mythology:
Vaccine-averse
Became the curse
Of epidemiology.

The world offers bountiful peace
Through pebbles of rain,
Deep trees on the plain,
And the harsh, haunting calls of wild geese.

Let’s forthwith his belly adorn
With razor so rusty
“Way hay!” cries so lusty,
She rises so early this morn!

strokes puppies and babies and kittens
Much better by far
Use his gloves for a bra
And warm your cold hands on his tittens.
