Notes About The Poem

work from a jerk

We edit our text and make cuts
To avoid the mantra word-klutz
What's publishing next
Are my lines badly hexed 
Here on poetry soup to nuts

What an imaginatively creative limerick. You've caught the cauldron of writing so well from witch hexed lines to klutz editing. And you've rhymed the lines beautifully. Loved it! A winner. Brian

Thanks Brian. We try our best, but what comes out sometimes leaves something to be desired. We're all just different and artistic in our own way. I don't really worry about it too much. The contests might be fun for some, but I am just writing to express my own thoughts--whatever they may be--sometimes about the nature of the society. Your work is really good, and no one can dispute that!

Awn you dont need to edit anything, as you one of those that are sincere in what you write and express in the form of limericks, with such creative rhymes and wordplay, that leaves me always in awe! “ word klutz and nuts” thats unique and brilliant. “ hexes and next” who would have thought of such rhymes, not me, so i admire such creativity! Always! Pleasure reading this

IE, you are really a very, very kind person. I really appreciate what you said. It inspires me to write more. This takes a lot of time and there is a lot to do every day, but we can certainly make some time for our PS community . You are a very special part of it, and I always look forward to reading your wonderful creations.
