GROAT - GROTESQUE
A grotesque gap in the stern is sinking my boat
Home Depot sale's on grout might keep my boat afloat
I don't wanna
But I'm gonna
Get some grout to grout the gap for less than a groat

Practitioners of the occult;
If an oddball white witch
Is called a mad bitch,
A darker-hued spell may result.

What are the odds that a Podunk village like London would have two great limerick masters?
I'm not saying that Rhubarb Commando is A C Bowden and vice versa.
I'm just saying...
Ever see then on the same stage at the same time?
It's only ACB who comes from the podunk village, jj - I come from the up-market, highly civilised city of Lancaster, Lancashire, which is far removed from the stinks and stews of London (removed by better part of 300 good miles!)_________________________

course the pubs I was in there was singing not limerick
composing.
Well, I tended to use the cellars of coffee bars and play washboard in skiffle groups.
But, in any case, that was prolly a bit before your time in The Great Wen
And you're quite right: la politesse is the leit motif of our exponent of the sackbut (Thinks: Did he play in the Tittipu Town Band?)

One incomplete phrase really drew me.
It fairly set me ablaze -
I just had to paraphrase –
And the long-dead author can’t sue me!

Gee whiz, Commando, intellectual banter such as that is usually overheard only in downtown London.
I, a country girl, am impressed.
