Let's write a Brokeback limerick! (How-to in first post)

Mrs. Twist offered cake with a cherry

Mrs. Twist offered cake with a cherry
Attempting to keep the tone merry

[lachlan]

Del Mar, in his youth, had missed
The opportunity to sin or be kissed
Til, neglecting his sheep,
He got pissed before sleep
Then awoke with his tail in a Twist.

Howzat?

Hey Lachlan, we're building these line-by-line.  I like your limerick though!  Post it here: http://bettermost.net/forum/index.php/topic,5944.0.html

Attempting to keep the tone merry.
Ennis declined, all he wanted was coffee

He so missed Jack's love — sweet like toffee.

Ennis declined, all he wanted was coffee.
He so missed Jack's love — sweet like toffee:
It was Jack, not their love, he had come to bury.

Sorry, I learned how to write poetry but not how to use a computer. I don't even have one;  I'm in a noisy internet cafe and can only write within a brief time allocation.  So all I can do is push "reply" and write.  Today I must pick up some kale from the Farmers' Market,  caulk a boat and lay down mulch,  so "posting" is beyond me.

Lachlan, although not to protocol......that was a great limerick

I'll second that.  Well done, Lachlan.
