L Milton Hankins Poet Limerick

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.

Caren Krutsinger June 11, 2022 at 11:11 PM "old bag" - I would have frowned too Hank. This would make any girl angry. L Milton Hankins June 12, 2022 at 9:54 AM Actually, there were several word choices here, and I found this one the least objectionable. I was desperate for a rhyme.

Gershon Wolf June 11, 2022 at 9:21 PM 'You old bag' is a great comeback, Milt. Comeback of the year! Hurray! :) gw L Milton Hankins June 11, 2022 at 9:32 PM 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!

Tom Cunningham June 11, 2022 at 11:34 AM Lol, there's a saying, don't knock it till you've tried it. I'll pass though. Tom L Milton Hankins June 11, 2022 at 12:38 PM Why, Tom. I had you in mind when I wrote this. (LOL)

Jenna Logan June 11, 2022 at 11:11 AM I could picture the entire scenario, Milt. lol L Milton Hankins June 11, 2022 at 12:38 PM Thanks, Jenna. I was scraping the bottom of the barrel.
