A Series of Unsettling Limericks

Diane a good kitchen did keep

And the passion between us was deep

But I grew to despise

Her unsatisfied eyes

And relieved her of them in her sleep

He works at the club where she dances

She succumbed to his drunken advances

But all it was worth

Was a premature birth

And a growth, which the head surgeon lances

The first gun he bought for protection

And soon had amassed a collection

But with a bottle of white

And a dog in his sights

He made no move to hide his erection

The insurance check David desired

But when finally he set the fire

From the house did arise

The most pitiful cries

As his son trapped inside it expired

These poems make me miss my dad.
