I Hate Limericks

The common cormorant (or shag)
Lays eggs inside a paper bag,
You follow the idea, no doubt?
It's to keep the lightning out.

But what these poor, unfortunate birds
Have never thought of, is that herds
Of bears might come with buns
And steal the bags to hold the crumbs.

- Christopher Isherwood

writer's block, limericks
