Five [More] City Limericks

By Berniegourley @berniegourley

There was a worker from Detroit
who - in his job - was quite adroit.
They said he had powers -
a thousand nuts an hour,
but it's not like he could enjoy't.

There was an old woman of Singapore
who was fit as a fiddle but quite poor.
Her legs, they were stout
from lugging about
fixings to sell chicken-rice door-to-door.

There was a businessman from Osaka
who flew in (for safari) to Lusaka.
Walking the savanna
he slipped on a banana,
and was lost in an elephantine ca-ca.

There was a bad boy from Budapest
who wanted to behave his very best.
No more driving drunk -
a corpse in the trunk.
Being good was harder than he'd guessed.

There was a young woman from Cancun
who knew all the phases of the moon.
She worked a nightclub,
slinging drinks and grub -
because the mid-day sun made her swoon.
