Limerick Friday LXXXII: “Hey, Smoke Up, Johnny”


Pot potency is higher than ever, it appears
THC content has doubled in the last 25 years
Stock for Cheetos and Funyuns is certain to sore
Mr. Short-Term Memory will have company, for sure
Bob Marley just rolled over in his grave, in tears

A Lake Show collapse for the ages
A choke job that took place in stages
In the first quarter, a 24-point Los Angeles lead
The third quarter began to show the Lakers bleed
Just hope Kobe doesn’t resort to rape as he rages

The attacks have begun from the Republican side
McCain eats dinner at 3:30 and then becomes snide
And that’s how vicious lies become spread
The media degenerates into he said, she said
Now Obama has to show the truth to everyone that lied

Another extra-inning defeat for my Mets
A huge payroll has become just another mess
Stealing defeat from the jaws of victory
Is the stain on Willie Randolph’s Mets history
It’ll be time to empty your office, Willie, in a week or less

As if the sweltering heat weren’t enough
Next we’re dealing with this pesky smoky stuff
A wildfire started in the east as if on cue
Now everything smells like a freaking barbecue
A Code Red could make going outside pretty rough

Last time ...
