Loopy Limericks

Thread Games

***don’t get it…do people just change because they want to after it’s finished? ***

Well, not usually. Once a line is written it stands - and wouldn’t be altered by anyone unless it is crazily incongruous. Similarly, once a limerick is completed, that’s it, and we move on to a new one.
Just another reminder though; the writer of the first line cannot write the last. (In this way the play gets shared around and one person cannot dominate the thread).

Anne was a juggler who had another.

But she showered his balls,
She stood tall to do them all.
While she tossed indian clubs to her brother.

I hear Fred blowing in my ear

*I was thinking -

‘That makes her muff smoke just like tinder’*

These things are meant to have a twist in their tail!
