    Poet Laureate, dontcha know?

    The Spin Cycle assignment over at Sprite's Keeper this week is to write a poem. But I'm really more of a dirty limerick kind of girl.

    (ahem)

    There once was a girl from Regina
    (which sadly DOES rhyme with vagina)
    She had her a kid
    Down the tubes her mind slid
    So she packed up and moved 'way to China.


    Hm. Hard to rhyme with Regina. Let's try:

    There once was a girl from Saskatchewan
    What the fuck rhymes with Saskatchewan?
    Nothing, that's what
    No gratuitous smut
    Can't even think of a way to get 'snatches' in.


    ...Sorry.

    I got something else going on over on http://www.wendy93639.com/" REL="nofollow">among mad people so I'll just leave mine here.. mmmk?

    You know what, Keely, I feel ya.
    It's like finding a rhyme for Montpelier.
    Do I really care?
    I've never been there..
    Fuck it and pass the tequila.

    peace, sister.

    If you tried really hard you could rhyme 'snatches' with 'be-atches'

    I love it!

    My own poetry attempt was going to include something about "A poem! No way, I cried!/Staying at home with two girls my brains have fried!" It didn't make the cut. I'm not posting a poem 'til tomorrow; it's taken me all week to come up with something!

    Bwahahaha! Love it! (Wendy's is great too!)
    You never fail to make me smile, Keely, even when bawdy, which is perfect for a limerick.
    You're linked and I'm STILL laughing!

    Any poem that includes "vagina" is alright by me. Nice work.

    Oh, gawd, that is good!
    Makes me wish I lived on Nantucket just for the limericks!!!

    LOL!!! At least you tried!!!

    I'm enjoying the poems a lot more than I thought I would.

    Wonderful addition.

    The little limerick/poem exercise kind of went downhill quickly. It made me laugh, though!

    January 22, 2009 | Unregistered Commenterbeth

    Wow, you should totally take over for Dr. Seuss!!

    January 22, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterHeatherPride

    Try finding something that rhymes with Kamloops. Well, besides Fruitloops.

    January 22, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterCaptain Dumbass

    DAMN IT! How do I keep forgetting this spin cycle shit? SOB.

    Sex, drugs rock n roll
    drink a keg
    smoke a bowl

    sex it good
    keeps us alive
    cuz we're the class of 95

    (my high school class song, I wrote it lmao)

    Nicely done!!!

    well, you could try cobswan, which is a big ass swan, or dewan, which is the term for officials in India, or Natashkwan, a river in Canada.

    Vocabulary is like crack to English teachers. We simply can't stop.

    Those are better rhymes than I can pull off. Limericks are my kind of poetry.

    January 22, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterHeinous

    To think I've been pronounce Regina wrong all these years.

    Can't write a limerick to save my own life, but these were hilarious. Great job. Anything that makes me laugh out loud and makes the hubby turn around and give me an odd look is well worth it.

    I started to laugh apon reading your title, almost wet myself by the end of the second limerick, and still have a big, stupid smile on my face. Thanks for the therapy!

    January 23, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterShangrila

    vagina and snatches.....
    what are you trying to say, really :)

    January 23, 2009 | Unregistered Commentercolepack

    Oh. Em. Gee. That was some funny shit. You and Wendy totally need to write a book.

    January 23, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterAmber

    Oh dude. I'm not laughing WITH you...

    my first visit to your blog.

    you are funny! i did a limerick too but mine pales in comparison. i bow to your rhyming excellence - except for Saskatchewan there was no excellence in that rhyming - but everything else rocked the kasbah.

    January 24, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterBex

    If you had really, really, really tried you could have used "Spadina" to sort of rhyme with "Regina." I think you were just looking for an excuse to use the word "vagina."

    Lame!
