Why do this? Well, because the “literary limericks” thread was so much fun, but who has the time to 1) read books or 2) pen elaborate, 5-line limericks? [Yep, I’m dumbing down the limerick gimmick.] Remember, it’s a strict 5-7-5 scheme, but other than that, it’s anything goes!
So, to wit(lessness):
Dan Rather
Texan breathlessness
Still worth clicking to sometimes
In case he freaks out.
Martha Stewart
I’d have sympathy;
Cry “tabloid martyr!” If she
Wasn’t such a bitch.
Vijay Singh
Annika fell short.
May you come back as a bull…
Dyke in your next life.
Peter Sellars
Is it possible
That you were just as perverse
As your greatest roles?
Amy Rigby
You’ve written searing
Songs of lust, jerks, and splitsville.
Enjoy the free plug!
“The West Wing”
Sorkin’s patter fueled
Lefty, sexy fantasy.
Beltway show just ruled.
Ed Wood
Hollywood’s Holy Fool,
His flops still fascinate. Weird.
Eddy’s pal is wrecked.
