Flasher Mac

There was an old hooker named Black,
She turned the air blue in Iraq,
In stilettos of ink
And her curlers of pink,
She flashed in her apricot mac.*

ok, I'm glad you showed us meaning of mac. that made it very funny!! I did not understand this contest and I just entered a limerick with mention of a few colors but not in every line. I wonder if she meant literally to use a color name in each line??
