Notes About The Poem

Contest: Wizard Of Oz Limerick contest, sponsored by Charles Messina

Ruby Slippers

Dorothy hated her ruby slippers
And hid them under the munchkin's knickers
He soon got up to go pee 
But tripped and fell on his knee
Her ruby slippers are now wet trippers

The scarecrow found Dorothy's wet red shoes
He didn't know why, but he was not amused
Gave them to the witch
who said she wouldn't snitch
After what he just did, he's now confused

Thanks for this Tania. I suppose it suggests be careful what you wish for. TCM showed the Wizard of Oz recently and the slippers bestow a lot of power. Your work seems to suggest trying to give that away or not pursuing it so hard. That would certainly make for an interesting film.

Those munchkins are not known for their taste, peeing all over the place, they find it quicker, peeing in a slipper, their actions are a utter disgrace.
