Hold on a minute, just wait
That's certainly not my fate
For that skin is gone
Don't know why, so long
Not belief, 't was hygiene, mate
Limerick Homer is recognized as Longest Limerick Text in World

The doctor had been drinking
Showed up rather stinking Cut this and not that Left on his top hat Poor baby flew home on one wing |

Ah, you were born on Canadian soil
But, somehow, you did find a Moyel You could be a Canadian Don Juan Just like old Don Now all you need is some aluminum foil! Just wrap it around the old member And go out in a stormy September It will seem quite frightening But a few strokes of lightning Will really help you remember. The power that you had when quite young When you were merry, naive and well hung And had only to muse And Good God what ensues Would interest Freud and Karl Jung! |

Hemingway's walls were sprayed red
Just 'cause he lost his wee head The bull had no horn Macho man minus porn Wrote his end with a lead-filled pen |

Good manners, by God, it's true
Are something quite often eschewed What rhymes with condom? Hell no, not sodom and a gent never pisses and tells! There, it feels great to break form. |

One can feel free breaking form
though breaking wind's really the norm. A gaseous burst really isn't much worse than proverbial 40 day storms. |

i recently moved & now live 3 - 4 miles from the Main Street Rag.
i had been there previously for a pooetry reading, but had never spoken with Scott. this morning i thought i would drop by & bother him. i succeeded royally. Scott referred to a stack of '4-up' [is that the correct word?] printed pages & said that they were waiting to be bound. i took the expected nosy glance & happened to recognize the names of the two authors. i think i recall seeing these same names on a flyer at the post office. anyway. |

Thank you, Neil. Thats kind of you to say. We are anticipating brisk sales of the LH and perhaps even a second printing or more? Who knows, Zeus holds our fate
in his hands.

Yeah, Scott's done all our editions, from Cold Eels through LH. We've been very pleased with the level of service and value.
