Notes About The Poem
Limerick inspired by Gershon Wolf's 'Ponder this'
13th February 2024

 

Up the Creek

There once was a man whose thoughts he would speak Each time the police were called to the freak Got himself arrested For what he suggested Last time he was sent off to Devil's Creek.

You have the right to remain silent. If you can't say anything nice then don't say anything at all--Bambi's mother. Point well taken, Belle! Robert
