Play on the title "Six Characters in Search of an Author," a 1921 play by the Italian dramatist, novelist, poet, and short story writer, Luigi Pirandello.
I’m being accosted by five lines in search of a poet.
They’re gonna request I turn them into a limerick, I just know it.
But I fear that their end rhymes are totally wrong,
and that three of the lines are just too wordy and long.
“Sorry, guys! You need to find yourselves a better poet,
cuz if I try ~ I just know I’m gonna blow it.”
