A limerick of classic proportion
should have meter and rhyme and a portion
of humor quite lewd,
and a frightfully crude,
impossible sexual contortion.

A limerick is best when it's lewd,
gross, titillating and crude --
but this one is clean,
unless you are seen
reading it aloud in the nude.

I wanted to print here a medley
of limericks so gross they were deadly,
but when the typesetter tried
to set them, he died;
(not to mention my editor, Smedly.)

I have written some limericks quite fateful,
malicious and vicious and hateful;
but I've torn up the jokes
that will sicken most folks,
and humanity ought to be grateful.
