A kitten, a pig and a parrot
Quite good friends, they lived in a garret
'Til the bird and the swine
Heard that cat’s lives numbered nine.

Just a reminder (because the simple Rules were set quite some time ago) ;
1***. Each writer may contribute more than one line per limerick. But these cannot be consecutive.
2. The writer of the first line cannot write the last - unless the thread has gone into hibernation.
3. The writer of the last line earns the right to suggest the first line of the new limerick. (The only time exception to this, is again, if the thread becomes dormant).***
Not wishing to discourage anyone. Don’t be too disappointed if the limerick doesn’t take the shape envisaged by the writer of the first line - it rarely does.
Worst limerick ever. It doesn’t rhyme, the lines are too long, and there’s not enough of them.
Still, point taken.
Charles had wanted to build a machine
To change flab into something obscene
Charles had wanted to build a machine
To change flab into something obscene
It would hum, it would click

To change flab into something obscene

Then extrude a huge dick
I wish to deny any part in the setting up that rhyme.
