Ok my AP familia - Since I don’t normally see any humorous poetry on this site.
I’m kinda down right now because someone thought I hurt them and I would never do that. So I’m stinging a little bit right now. Any who, I want to laugh. Out loud and spitting my drink on the desk or guy next to me. Or I want a satirical piece that makes me shake my head and say out loud, “ that was clever as hell.”
Here’s my rules:
1. I gives a damn, make it funny
2. No short stories
3. Make me see it, smell it taste it or what ever
4. Limericks, limericks, limericks
5. if other than Limericks, It has to be good
6. Slutty, funny
7. Ridiculous with no reason
8. Reality with absurdity,
So have at it. Here’s what a limerick is:
A Limerick is a rhymed humorous or nonsense poem of five lines which originated in Limerick, Ireland.
The Limerick has a set rhyme scheme of : a-a-b-b-a with a syllable structure of: 9-9-6-6-9.
The rhythm of the poem should go as follows:
Lines 1, 2, 5: weak, weak, STRONG, weak, weak, STRONG, weak, weak, STRONG, weak, weak
Lines 3, 4: weak, weak, STRONG, weak, weak, STRONG, weak, weak
Here’s two of mine:

I don't contest Limericks.
There once was a human called My-Key
Went out for a ride on a trikey
Spun out on the grass
And went teats over ass
And My-Key sings choir now high key. -
Why not allow multiple entries? You'll get more laughs...

Mykey, Thank you very much for hosting and for that sparkling new gold trophy that is sitting atop the mantle on my home page. When I first saw the contest and heard limericks. My mind jumped right to a prewrite, I knew I had some funny ones in there and I'm very happy that I got you to laugh or should I say Silver got you laughing.
My heartiest congratulations go out to everyone who participated in this and all should take a bow for their work. Love and God bless all of you, Joyce
