Limericks IX

Limericks IX Scratch-n-Sniff by Michael R. Burch The world’s first antinatalist limerick? Life comes with a terrible catch: It’s like starting a fire with a match. Though the flames may delight In the dark of the night, In the end what remains from the scratch? Time Out! by Michael R. Burch Time is at war with my body! am i Time’s most diligent hobby? for there’s never Time out from my low-t and gout and my once-brilliant mind has grown stodgy! Waiting Game by Michael R. Burch Nothing much to live for, yet no good reason to die: life became a waiting game... Rain from a clear blue sky. The Nazis now think things’re grand. The KKK’s hirin’ a band. Putin’s computin’ Less Ukrainian shootin’. They’re hootin’ ’cause Trump’s win is planned. —Michael R. Burch Trump comes with a few grotesque catches: He likes to grope unoffered snatches; He loves to ICE kids; His brain’s on the skids; And then there’s the coups the fiend hatches. —Michael R. Burch Trump’s Saddest Tweet to Date by Michael R. Burch I’ve gotten all out of kilter. My erstwhile yuge tool is a wilter! I now sleep in bed. Few hairs on my head. Inhibitions? I now have no filter! the best of all possible whirls, for MAGA by Michael R. Burch ive made a mistake or two. okay, maybe quite more than a few: mistakes by the millions, the billions and zillions, but remember: ur LORD made u! where were u when HEE passed out brains? or did u politely abstain? u call GAUD “infallible” when HEE made u so gullible u cant come inside when Trump reigns. Nipples' Ripples by Michael R. Burch Men are scared of nipples: that’s why they can’t be seen. For if they were, we’d go to war as in the days of Troy, I ween. Devil’s Wheel by Michael R. Burch A billion men saw your pink undies. What will the pard say to you, Sundays? Yes, your panties were cute, but the shocked Devil, mute, now worries about reckless fundies. MVP! by Michael R. Burch Will Ohtani hit 65 homers, win the Cy Young by striking out Gomers, make it cute and okay to write KKK while inspiring rhyme-challenged poemers? Will Ohtani hit 65 homers, win the Cy Young by striking out Gomers, prove the nemesis of white supremacists while inspiring rhyme-challenged poemers? Will Ohtani hit 65 homers, win the Cy Young by striking out Gomers, cause supremacists to cease and desist while inspiring rhyme-challenged poemers?
