Jack Ellison Poet Limerick

My Brain Complains It's Underpaid

So what silly notion has taken over today?
My brain works independently, I don't have a say
I do draw the line
And start to whine
When my brain tries to claim it's seriously underpaid

David Fisher April 21, 2015 at 9:08 PM This is a fun Limerick. Maybe your body parts have unionized. Jack Ellison April 21, 2015 at 9:23 PM As part of management, I will fight this tooth and nail!!!

Lindsay Laurie April 21, 2015 at 7:51 PM Blimey young Jack... The doc reckons I couldn't afford the search fees to find my brain. You're right though, the brain as well as other body parts all claim to be overworked and underpaid. Lindsay Jack Ellison April 21, 2015 at 8:23 PM A-N-D my brain works totally on it's own! LOL A pretty smart ass piece of equipment!!!
