Three Limericks About Ordinary Things

A brush, a lure, and, a dish

A Brush

There once was a brush from Broome,

With bristles of horse hair to groom,

Each morning we met,

Graceful movements it swept,

My dandruff away like a broom.

A Lure

I once caught a fish in Nantucket,

With a flick, it flew right into the bucket,

The lure I was using,

Made things quite confusing,

A grouper, no flounder? Oh, fuck it.

A Dish

There’s nothing more useful than this,

More than anything someone might wish,

Whether omelet or turkey,

Some fish sticks or jerky,

No worries, my friend grab a dish.
