    I will be so bad at this...it'll be like a car crash...it's be horrific but you'll just have to look to see how bad.

    I like the topic, I could work with that in some odd way...hopefully in triolet form...if not I'll just tell some knock knock jokes.

    Losing is so much fun...preparing myself for the obvious.

      Now you know the guideline
      just grab your pen
      and write verses that rhyme
      now that you know the guideline

      when you ready, give me a sign
      if something not right, try again

      now you know the guideline
      just grab your pen

      Ah, hands in water, right?
      I know the feeling, when verses are absent, floor and cupboards are usually clean
