Limerick, Poetic Form Exercise Options

[JustDaniel]

If you've dropped in your phone and then flushed
then discover it, you will be crushed
'cause you've lost all your friends
for the moment; it ends
by their knowing what happened... 'less hushed!

[Larry]

If they hushed what has happened, we know
that discovery can be real slow
but the facts, soon revealed
makes them stammer when grilled;
secrets will be a nice viral show

[JustDaniel]

When his secret went viral he knew
consequences would daily accrue
so he took a vacation
for immunization
but infection had filled his wazzoo.

[Larry]

Does your infected wazzoo now feel
like a hot poker made out of steel
fell from blazing hot fire
and it's in you; acquire
a good proctologist who can drill.

[JustDaniel]

So you're fond of proctologist drill?
Do you feel like you're walking uphill?
Better tend to your cheeks
with some healthy techniques
or your smile will be going downhill.

[Larry]

If you're going downhill you can smile
for you don't have a puddle or pile
thanks to Earth's gravity;
all your poop and your pee
is recycled and used after while.

[JustDaniel]

Since recycled and used after while
all our poetry's mingled with guile
'cause we don't know the source
or what gives it its force
or what makes it a long-lasting style.

[Larry]

If your style is long-lasting you make
some good poetry and some that's fake
as you're biding your time
in a place thought sublime
until other folks give us a break.

[JustDaniel]

Why should other folks give us a break
when our work hardly shows we're awake
to what's hap'ning around;
yea, our stuff's run aground
and can hardly afford a cheesesteak.

[Larry]

If a cheesesteak's all you can afford
and you eat as the boisterous crowd roared
at your quips and bon mots
and wrote "thank you"; there's lots
of our stuff all the people adored.

[JustDaniel]

If the people adored all our stuff
why's it seem that I haven't enough
to keep paying my bills
and without any frills?
Pretty soon I'll be sleeping in buff!

[Larry]

If you sleep in the buff, pretty soon
you'll be lying there naked 'till noon
when the wife brings the boss
home for lunch then you'll toss
on some clothes so they won't see the moon.

[JustDaniel]

When my wife's home for lunch, oft the moon
can be seen in my room; she won't swoon!
But I'm glad that her boss
doesn't drop in to toss
me around on the floor like some goon.

[Larry]

If you've gone around me on the floor
with some chalk you had better explore
for when I go to sleep
it is really quite deep
and a trip to the morgue I'd abhor.

[JustDaniel]

I'd abhor going home to a pyre
'cause I want to chose my own attire;
the mortician is cold
and will often withhold
his opinion on choice: dirt or fire!

[Larry]

His old pinions of choice were on fire
when escaping from Crete; ever higher
Icarus failed to heed
so his dad watched him speed
to a watery grave from death’s gyre.

[JustDaniel]

If you water his grave with your mire
it would seem that your hate is on fire;
you could bury it there
and keep grey from your hair
with forgiveness your new heart-attire.

[Larry]

If you tire your new heart it will give
you small notice if you’d like to live
longer than the next beat
then get off of your feet
because sutures will leak like a sieve

[JustDaniel]

If your sutures make you take a leak
then your pain meds are now past their peak.
Soon you'll be back to normal
and your clothing informal...
you'll be home inside of a week.

[Larry]

If you’re weak when you’re inside a home
then I’d say you are wanting to roam
far away from that place
where you’ll find lots of space
like a beach with blue waves and white foam.
