Panic

I feel sorry for my good mate Billy,
Who chewed on the hottest of chilly.
His mouth copped the blast,
Now with body parts caste...
His wife frantically searches for Willy.

Lindsay, I should have studied this limerick before writing the one about the firefighter. Excellent, authentically funny composition. Thanks for sharing it.

Hello Arthur... I'm pleased you got a bit of a chuckle out of this nonsense; at least I hope it's nonsense - Lindsay

Hey there Scott... yeah, over hot chillies do have the ability to perform practical jokes on the unwary. Thanks Scott - Lindsay
