of limericks, i've written my share,
some bad, some middling, some fair
Good meter, good rhymes,
quite witty at times
their quality, i let others declare!

I could, my wit, proclaim far and wide
and demand others to puff up my pride
but i treasure most,
not my own boast,
but success, when after time after time i've tried!

Wiser eyes see the strength of the Mule
Fetching petrol to fire as a fuel;
As a general rule
Let’s all try and keep cool:
Heat’s no use but to warm up a fool!


Legal disclaimer: no-one here is more or less of an ass than all the rest of us; no animals were harmed in this production; yaddah-yaddah....

IT'S TIME TO MOVE ON

Delightful, Of Troy.

If this is what I bring out in you, I should get a medal for it! :)

You're so vain, you probably think this song is about you
You're so vain, I'll bet you think this song is about you
Don't you? Don't You?

Listen up boys, I was at the library yesterday and saw a new book commemorating the tragedy of 911. I leafed through it half expecting Of troy's poem to be among the others there. It wasn't.
What a shame. The poem Helen wrote at that sad time more clearly said what could have be said than any other words I have ever seen on paper. Brilliant.
