Delectation, Erudition, Eructation

Apr 14, 2018 11:26

Day fourteen of National Poetry Writing Month, and nobody has begged me to stop. Yet.

Given the misogynistic tone of many Limericks - and of profanity in general - I will endeavour to provide some gender balance in the tide of salacity and slander.

This policy will be extended to the tide of disturbing perversions and improbable injuries: gentlemen, you have been warned.

However, today's effort is merely rude, despite the promising beginning:

A gentleman knows when to burp,
To gargle and swallow, or slurp:
    The peak of his art
    Is to sneak out a fart
And to blame it on some other twerp.

There is an obscene version and I will supply it, if asked, in a comment.

This is a copy of my post here, on Dreamwidth, which has
comments. OpenID will allow you to comment there from your LiveJournal session: contact me if you have problems.
