This is not a true limerick as it doesn't have the rhythm of a limerick. It would be better placed in the Random Poem thread.


It's just fine here.

Is there such a thing as emoetry?
Or if it rhymes in some way, is it poetry?
Emos should be aware,
Not to lay their souls bare,
When the public's not part of their coterie.

I find myself bored,
by the constant hoard
of madness here,
so I'm drinking beer,
until I am floored.

Can you please stop trying to censor me?

It makes no damn difference to me
Whether you take or leave it
But, would you believe it

The saying is not "There are none so blind who will not see". That makes no sense at all.

"There are none so blind as those who will not see." is, perhaps, what you are driving at.

Regardless of whether or not you were aiming that little thing at anyone in particular, it is meaningless with such a grammatically imbalanced and incoherent last line.

Could well be selective breeding
We could just eliminate
Those we don't rate
As people that we'll be needing!

There is much to be said for brevity
One can say so much so succinctly
Explain one's exact feelings
Minus hidden meanings
It works very well, do believe me!

The rain is now turning to snow,
Be careful if outdoors you must go,
Dress warm and stay dry,
When the snow banks get high,
If it's slippery be sure to walk slow.

This isn't the red site, Paul.

Hardly smut, Blue.

Still, no point in rocking the boat is there?

The smut bordered on the obscene,
And should not have been heard or seen,
This site is for those
Who write poems or prose
Which are fun without being unclean.

The lesson was harsh to the poet
He was in the wrong, and he knew it.
His words caused offence
And were reduced to obsolescence
Now he feels such a silly twit!

Every word that I wrote, I am sure
Has been used here in poetry before
And I did not intend
To be rude and offend
I apologize and will do it no more

There once was a place that was fun..
Where members laughed and played in the sun..
Then along came a cloud..
It rained on the crowd..
Umbrellas and rainsuits are donned..

there was an old man who had envy
of anyone younger and trendy
and so out of spite
with all his might
he made himself extremly unfriendly!

Once upon a time in a sense.
There was a sad little girl and hence.
Whenever she cried,
All the plants died.
And she was spoiled ever since.

Trendy and younger he was such a sport..
Like a bull in a china shop he would cavort..
He jumped in the pool..
and acted a fool..
He lost his trunks and did snort..
