Oops

A pyromaniac named Jack, Who hailed from the town of Hackensack, Decided one day, with matches he’d play He’s a mummy now, flat on his back!

I'm afraid not but, it was written around 3am so, there's no telling what I'll put down at that hour. Glad you enjoyed it.

Charred, medium-rare? "Jack Flat becomes Mummy" seems like a News of the World Headline. Congratulations on your success! Aloha! Rico

You have added some favorite aspects of my life to this poem without realizing it. Wonderful limerick, my friend. Love the cadence of it, and the playfulness.
