Assignment: Write a Limerick
September 11, 2010
I once had to write a dumb poem
So I took and worked on it at home
But the limerick was tough
So I gave up that stuff
And that’s why this last line doesn’t rhyme.

Ha! i don't like limericks unless they are meta-limericks--limericks about limericks are awesome if done right. great meter too. I have a piece in the poetry section called "cliche:" it's not a limerick but i was really pleased with the meter when i wrote it. you might like it, so if you want, check it out.

...Thanks for the compliment.
Do you mean 'stalk' as in, read-all-my-stuff? Or as in, trying-to-find-my-address?

I am stalking you...
I know you are a funny mormon. I think you are a boy. I am working on reading all of your stuff. Big fan.

Fortunately, he had quite a sense of humor- otherwise I wouldn't have tried it. :)

This is clever- Your writing about how hard it is to write a limerick! In the process, you created one! Great job!
