I thought this may be fun. The previous person who posts either their haiku or limerack will then at the bottom post a word to be included in the next persons post and whether they want it to be a haiku or limerick.

For a haiku, the first line must have five syllables, the second seven, and then five again for the final line.

Ex: I went to a bed
Fluffy pillows all are there
Sleep now beckons me


And limericks as we know are the funny ones like

I once knew a lady from venus
Whose body was shaped like a ....

I won't finish that but you get the idea.
A limerick is a five-line poem written with one couplet and one triplet. If a couplet is a two-line rhymed poem, then a triplet would be a three-line rhymed poem. The rhyme pattern is a a b b a with lines 1, 2 and 5 containing 3 beats and rhyming, and lines 3 and 4 having two beats and rhyming. Some people say that the limerick was invented by soldiers returning from France to the Irish town of Limerick in the 1700's.

Okay.

Shall we try?

I once met a man in leather pants,
He said I should take a chance.
I said "Well that's not really my thing,"
But he wasn't hearing a thing,
At least now I know how to dance.

Word: Illicit
Haiku.
 
I was part of a crowd yelling BOOYAH!
We had fun all the while that it lasted
Till the game, it was over
Our team it did lose
Still the very best time I think, do ya?

Word: Stink
Limmerick
 
I dream of a girl
One who is pretty insane
She is Beav's sister

First she scared the Beav
time and time again as kids
then she stalked Reggie

But, can she love me
a poor boy hooked on blue crack
from the boogie down

If only I could
Have Manilow sing to her
sigh, then she'd be mine

Oh, and, Limerick next, work in the word "sputem"

I once met a girl named Dolores.
She was driving a brand new Ford Taurus.
I didn't even choose
to take the easy route and use
the obvious word choice, clitoris.

Oh. Damn.

Next up: Limerick using "leper colony"
 
There once was a man in a tower
Who refused to step foot in a shower
His excuse, as a monk,
For that odious funk
Was that God would cleanse him with His power.

Haiku: Demented
 
i once met a guy in a drunk pit
who asked if i wanted to fuck it
he then did a dance
and pulled down his pants
and it was too small even to suck it


limerick, hairy balls
