Reason A. Poteet Poet Limerick

Poor Dan Owl

a limerick using palindromes

Ole Dan - Mr. Owl  ate my metal worm,
deep down inside its weight has settled firm.
     Poor Dan is in a droop;
     it’s hard to take a poop.
The Doc says lots of Coke may help long-term.

Poteet March 18, 2026 at 5:41 AM What else can a poet do with poop? Have a bit of fun at no one's expense in particular. Thanks, Tania.
