Over at the Imaginary Garden with Real Toads, Laurie Kolp asks for 5-minutes worth of "Ecstasy"
Be Warned
There was a young raver called Peck
who sampled ocassional ec-
stasy tablets,
which soon became habit
and now he's a quivering wreck.
.
This is a fun quickie, with an underlying message that needs to be addressed.
ReplyDeleteI love your take on the prompt, quick , direct and true. It has the limerick style that is so fun to read and reminds me of 5th grade.
ReplyDeleteHappy holidays to you n yours
Thanks for visiting me
Thanks Ella and Kerry. It's a 5th Grade limerick alright!
ReplyDeleteNo it isn t it is a 5min prompt ; )
ReplyDeleteThe short rhyme reminded of the clever
Fun of this kind of poem
I like your poem's uniqueness. Clever twist.
ReplyDeleteI was wondering who might use ecstasy as the drug. Some may have not heard of "X"... isn't that what they call it? Anyway, a quivering wreck sums it up perfectly! Thanks for taking part.
ReplyDeleteYou've set me thinking, Doctor...
ReplyDeleteThere was a young raver called Peck
who said to himself "What the heck!
Those 'ecstasy' pills
just made me feel ill,
now my pecker is down and not up!"
