Slammer In the Slammer

(I just took this as a fun little assignment. I did not even make the deadline for the contest. I was not targeting any person at all in this little story. I do not object to slam poetry and I think it would be humorous to see someone get arrested for not even being able to slam correctly! I love all my friends, slamming and non-slamming alike. ) Andrea Some poetry cops learned the crime Of a slammer who just couldn’t rhyme. In a jail cell he pays - Being forced endless days To hear sonnets while he’s serving time!

haha, cool limerick Andrea, too bad you missed the deadline. Eek, poetry cops, I'd better watch out, although being forced to listen to sonnets wouldn't be such a bad punishment for me ;) ~ Sharon :)

OK, I adjusted 'My Green Lady'. I had to change the last two lines though. I hope that it meets your approval:)

Hey, go back and read 'My Green Lady" I think you missed something that was revealed in the last stanza. Also I deleted my entree Sam The Clown. After seeing some of the winners remarks I decided that I didn't want to be part of the contest.
