Premium Member Limerick: Once Lucy Met Heidelberg Man
Limerick: Once Lucy met Heidelberg Man

   for Nelson Mandela

Once Lucy met Heidelberg Man
Then Neanderthal and Peking Man
Tortoise said to the Turtle:
“Where’s your doggone girdle!”
“What a disgrace to my race,” said Bushman!

Premium Member On That Day When All Is Dark
For Ananga

        On that day when all is dark

Though I wake to find no day
I will burn a flower on my tiny finger
And cipher the heart of the yelp
