Baggy Time
The Limericist watched,
the stage was set,
the crowd took their seats.
Act One:
Lim walks Bella,
a stubborn 14-year-old 13-inch beagle
who almost yanks Lim's arm
out of joint to chase a morning squirrel,
but Lim is hardly aware
because he is amused within himself,
thinking - Drama .. drama, everything is drama:
Bloody Christ dying on a cross with sad eyes,
audiences all choked up...
