A lost and lonely waif named Eva
Said “I don’t want to sound like a diva,
But your dick is too small,
And turns yellow in Fall
And barely gets into my beavah.”
The Patriots’ balls were deflated
“beavah”…classic… 
The Patriots’ balls were deflated
But that didn’t matter-they were fated
The Patriots’ balls were deflated
But that didn’t matter-they were fated
To first clobber the Colts
The Patriots’ balls were deflated
But that didn’t matter-they were fated
To first clobber the Colts,
Knock the nuts off their bolts,
The Patriots’ balls were deflated
But that didn’t matter-they were fated
To first clobber the Colts,
Knock the nuts off their bolts,
And then prove Seattle over-rated.

***The first, second, and fifth lines must have seven to ten syllables (‘beats’) while rhyming and follow the same verbal rhythm. The third and fourth lines customarily have only five to seven syllables, and have to rhyme with each other and have the same rhythm. ***
Five syllables is the norm in lines three and four. If you write more than twice that number in a line you are writing something that isn’t a limerick - and effectively sabotaging the game.

I thought the Rule of Funny trumped such nitpicky nonsense. 
If you are going to be that nitpicky, I’m out of here. :mad:
Well, I am going to be ‘nit-picky’ if it means respecting the efforts of those who actually show some cleverness in their contributions and take care to leave something that the next player can build on.
When I initiated this thread I only prefaced it with a few simple rules.
I didn’t think it was necessary to explain just how the limerick format works - I assumed that anyone interested in participating would already be well aware.

With a horn made of tin,
And pick out a cute one to straddle.
