a limerick from kent (Limerick) by nentwined There once was a limerick from kent
and had it changed from tisane
that all out of shape
as she hated the name
the very day she came into her own

Uh-oh...
This is not a Limerick. And you are illiterate.
This is not a limerick? On what grounds do you base that? The fact that it doesn't rhyme? Well in that case, how do you account for this well-known accepted non-rhyming limerick:
There was an old man of St. Bees Who was horribly stung by a wasp When they said: 'Does it hurt?' He replied: 'No it doesn't - It's a good job it wasn't a hornet' So, despite fulfilling the rhythmic requirement of a limerick, and containing the requisite Lear-esque nonsensical subject, it is not, in fact, a limerick? OH MY GOD! YOU ARE A MORE ENLIGHTENED POET THAN W.S. GILBERT!!!! I TAKE OFF MY SHOES IN YOUR HONOUR!!! LOLOLOLOLOLOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11
Funnier than AIDS
Interesting subversion. The grammar looks a bit convoluted. Don't get l4.
I honestly don't have a clue what I was doing here. I barely have a glimmer of memory of writing it. I'm sure there was a gimmick?
Yep, it's a limerick from Kent.
