Carrion in Marion?

by Glenn Currier

On the barstool near Fred was ole Marion
and his flatulence sounded so clarion
that it roused all the boozers
and stirred the accusers
who expelled the loud smelly barbarian.

Author's Note: A response to the Limerick Challenge from Marion M. Burkett. However.... just found out Marion is a SHE. Now this poem seems just a tad indelicate... or am I just sexist? Well, limericks are SUPPOSED to be gross, right? I was just being true to the form. Anyway, SHE wrote... FRED There once was a man name Fred / His friends thought him certainly dead / But to their surprise / There was no demise / He's asleep on his barstool instead.

You have started deriving pleasure ( instead of meaning haha) from your own writing, it seems. In any case, laughter is a positive emotion. So, thanks Glenn.
