Limericks for the 2021 Winter Challenge
Day 1: Oops
Cain and Abel went on holiday
to the ski slopes of Serre Chevalier.
When Cain yelled, “This blows!“
avalanches of snow
buried both of them till it was May.
Day 2: Or Are You Just Happy to See Me
When Praxis called Cain a rude heel,
Deimos crept up and poked him with zeal.
He sputtered, dismayed, “Are you packing a blade?”
“I am, but that’s not what you feel.”
Day 3: The Part Cain Didn’t Mention
An Agent was sent down to Mars
to pick up hot hunks in gay bars.
He’d send them to jail and then offer them bail
if they’d go fight a war in the stars.
Day 4: Come On Bering There’s Room for Both of You
To avoid showers caked up with goop,
Cook installed a hot tub on his stoop.
When he tried to get in, he found Bering within,
saying: “Too many Cooks spoil the soup!”
Day 5: They Got Reposted to the Same Ship Okay
A maintenance tech and a fighter
thought the ship’s holiday should be brighter.
They decked all the halls with the shiniest balls
and then held each other much tighter.
Day 6: Sorry Kapla
Deimos found the top brass locking lips,
too engrossed to heed knocks or cracked whips.
They were clearly too weak, so he stopped acting meek,
shot them dead and took over the ship.
Day 7: Nobody’s Perfect
Isolde said, “Tristan, my guy,
your love makes me feel I could fly.
But you snore so damn loud that I fall off my cloud
and for that heinous crime you must die.”
