Is it any wonder that both Jack and Ennis
were dirt poor, neither had any pennies
Dilapidated trucks
and high altitutde f***s

My dear fellow limerickers

I've been told that 'Ennis' and 'pennies' don't rhyme at all.
There's a difference in pronounciation that I'm not aware of,
and I have difficulties hearing the distinction with my Swedish ears.

I moderate this thread, and should not make mistakes like that.
I apologize for this, and I hope noone was mislead by my mistake.

I'll be more careful in the future.

Brokeback rhymes in English can be tricky,
Between "truck" and "luck", things can get sticky,

Ickyness wouldn't make us turn and flee,
A companion where none had been expected...
