Feel free to publish, post, or pass on Your Weekly Politickle by F.R. Duplantier:
CAP SIZE
There are pirates all around,
On the sea and on the ground;
In rags or suit,
They all want loot
— Enough to get them drowned.
From the archives:
EXTRA INCOME
By dollar, by yen, or by ounce,
One can only surmise the amounts
That a solon retains
As his ill-gotten gains
In his numbered Swiss savings accounts.
(1998)
Last week’s limerick:
YEAR MUFF
I sure hope that it isn’t a sign
Of accelerating mental decline
When I know it’s too late
To write 2008
But forget to write 2009.
