Follow Your Whim

Toast him or roast him
or follow your whim, and
put him out on a limb ~
  But if that limb breaks
  Both your futures are grim

Clever write for the person beating can be a man, women, wife. In any case, future is grim. How is your dieting? Take care, Rama

My diet? Oh, yes: If I go out on a limb, it will break in half before I get halfway out. So, I guess -- not-so-good! ~ Stuffed Turkey

I like that last part; "if that limb breaks" - and it sometimes does.

When you're in the cradle, 'When the bough breaks;' when you're out on the limb... Rush Lim - bow (What incredible bad taste here, Gershon!)

When "that limb breaks" And, you are underneath, you are right- there won't be any future for you or for him. This is cute and clever. You are so creative. :) All I have to say is- don't stand underneath any limbs. :) Brandy

Maybe instead of standing underneath a limb, I should go out on a limb. ~ Just sayin'
