Drag Queen

I met a fellow from Lackamoral Town He wore high heels and a luxurious gown He said to me, “I do drag,” I said to him, “Why, you old bag!” To which he responded with an awful frown. Written June 11, 2022

"old bag" - I would have frowned too Hank. This would make any girl angry.

Actually, there were several word choices here, and I found this one the least objectionable. I was desperate for a rhyme.

Well, I had a couple of other rhymes in mind, but they would've never passed the censors! IMHO, a good limerick should always be cleaned up...just a little bit!

Lol, there's a saying, don't knock it till you've tried it. I'll pass though. Tom
