El Matador

Carlos was a world famous matador

   He had suffered a ton of blood and gore

      He'd made lots of dinero

         Tanglin' with old el toro

            Carlos retired to be 'bullied' no more

Carlos the matador has nothing to beef about anymore. A very amusing Limerick Robert… Belle
