Gershon Wolf Poet Limerick

Lucifer, Vamoose, Sir

The old Devil, his name is Lucifer
When I see him, I tell him, 'Vamoose, Sir' --
  The Devil grins his sly smile
  Pleads, 'Let me stay for a while' --
I chase him away with an ethnic slur

John Watt March 9, 2021 at 2:41 PM To paraphrase a song title - Why should the devil have all the good limericks? Gershon Wolf March 9, 2021 at 5:57 PM To answer the title's question -- b/c he wasn't created in God's image.

Caren Krutsinger March 9, 2021 at 9:50 AM Wow! I have never even heard of this slur; do tell! Gershon Wolf March 9, 2021 at 5:54 PM Good to hear that someone has maintained her innocence! -- or else is tremendously hard-of-hearing! lol.

Judy Ball March 8, 2021 at 11:20 AM OOO! Good One Gershon. Give him one for me too. Great job and thoroughly enjoyed. God Bless, JB Gershon Wolf March 8, 2021 at 7:49 PM How about this for an ethnic slur for the devil? -- You, pathetic, putrid, Puritan piece of prune-pit pie, you! That'll get rid of him for a bit. lol. Thanks, Judy.
