Good one. Limericks are fun.

Thanks. They’re definitely fun to write.
This is amusing but it is not a limerick per se. It doesn’t scan to the limerick rhythm. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limerick_(poetry)

Sorry to hear that.
From prison Manette headed west For fear of the Bastille’s unrest, While Paris was tumbling and London was grumbling that the times were the worst and the best.
I think that tidies it up a trifle! Enjoyed that, thanks.
Literary gems get such kickings, Reduced to such very slim pickings: When TV and movies Gut what’s true, jeez, Who’d wish to be Austen or Dickens?
Well said.
