Limerick Friday #442: Hollywood Loses An Underrated Character Actor, Plus March Sadness


In "Say Anything," emoted stoic pain
Phenomenal as "Frazier's" Martin Crane
He was the emotional core
Offsetting some psychobabble bore
RIP John Mahoney, an acting treasure it's plain

A generation that's not just text readers 
These kids act like leaders
While adults act like kids
And keep our country on the skids
Maybe they're more than just Tide Pod eaters

The government killed his Dad
Blamed it on a trip gone bad
Personal life forgone
To pursue an obsession long
"Wormwood," hard to watch but glad

Destroyed all my bracket sheets
With the ugliest of all beats
No-showed against Seton Hall
But I do have to say, y'all
This is a promising debut for Keatts

After the Pack bitter pill
A&M gave us a thrill
Pounded the 'Holes to dust
Justice against the unjust
Michael Jordan face across Cheater Hill
