(Limericks are fun... I wrote a few serious ones on impulse for EJ on MSN.  She insisted I post them in here.  Tell me what you think?)

There once was a demon-clawed child
who was born and grew up in the wild
he wandered and killed
as the holy blood spilled
and left every footstep defiled

Allan,

Wooo...

Now seriously, I've already told you that they are both really good. So I'll say it again with a little more enthusiasm. These are totally outstanding limericks. Particulary the religious one. I liked that one quite alot.

Er..lost for words. Crappy head.
Hoping to see lots more soon.

Hey Allan,
liked this one a whole lot. Take a bow buddy. But, I want to ask one question. Have you been watching those late night horror movies? j/k. I really loved those limericks.

Very nicely done here, Allan!  These lymericks are really well written... Another great job

I never thought that you would ever be the one to let me down. I guess that just goes to show how wrong I always am.

Interesting.  I liked it.  I think you should try some more of these.  BTW, your last line was 10 syllables long, not nine as it seems you intended to do with the poems longer lines.

This was great. I read this one a long time ago but couldn't reply. Well the one that stayed up was great. Nicely done.

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily

These rock. You know, these words could describe Gau from Final Fantasy 6. A child born and raised in the wild, destined to shed holy blood (well..Kefka believed he was a god...). Keep em up Allen.

It can't be!
He exists..
