A ghost of chickens past

I'd just pull off my drumsticks
Software
Then headlessly run fast
Rosie
I wish I were a tuba
Raak
With a 'normous shiny bell
Software
My basso tones will resonate
Rosie
And make your life sheer hell.
This has sat here for 9 days so I've finished it myself. I wouldn't say it was a particularly difficult one.
Raak
I wish I were an endgame
Time, gentlemen?
penelope
A glow-worm's final thrust
irach
The last bright glimmer in the dark
KagomeShuko
Arising from the dust

Why kill it? It moves faster than any other game in MC5.
Chalky
I wish you'd all just go away
Phil
I know just what you mean
Software
You're really getting up my nose
Rosie
Like Elton John, great queen.
Giertrud
My phone ate the "whoops" button
Giertrud
didn't realize we were missing our dividing line
My phone ate the "whoops" button
KagomeShuko
It thought it was delicious
(this is the 2nd line - the first is "my phone at the whoops button)
Raak
It tasted of old mutton
Software
Which makes me feel suspicious
Spangle
I wish to make a statement
Simons Mith
That will edify the press:
Rosie
"I've got loads of money -
penelope
Most people have got less."
Rosie
I wish I were a paintbrush
Raak
Thrust deep in thick, thick paint
Software
I'd spread it 'cross your canvas
penelope
But an oil painting? You ain't.
Spangle
I need some inspiration
CdM
My mind has drawn a blank
Knobbly
Has anyone got any thoughts
Rosie
I did have, but they stank.
Knobbly
(Rosie has cleverly made my move look like I forgot the question mark.)
penelope
[Knobbers]
That's cut-throat competitve poetry for you. Well - doggerel dogfights, anyhoo.
It's funny how your brightest thoughts
Raak
Are had while in the bath
Rosie
These musings land one in the courts
(Knobbly)
So you did. I've only just noticed.
(pen)
Knobbers? Knobbers?? You're dir'y.
Software
If played out before a hearth
Broad "a" mode.
Rosie
I wish I were a lawyer
CdM
Who travels place to place
Software
Distributing fee notes
irach
And winning every case

I'm glad I'm not a banker
Software
For bonuses I hate
penelope
Those coins weigh down my pockets
Raak
And make me very late.

Beware the Jabberwock my son!
irach
His eyes are all aflame
Raak
Be bold, and with your vorpal sword
Juxtapose
Restore our family name.
Spangle
This recipe for meatloaf
Raak
Needs garlic -- twenty cloves
Rosie
This means that it can stop a train
penelope
And empty it, in droves
Hmmm. Maybe someone else could have done it better.
Software
I wish that I could write a verse
[pen] good result given the circumstance
Spangle
In praise of paradigms
penelope
But that would clearly be peverse
Rosie
So just do one that rhymes.
penelope
I wish that I were far away
Raak
In fabled Samarkand
Phil
I'd grab a passing camel
Software
And ride across the sand
KagomeShuko
I've learned why these are called glowworms
CdM
(Though I haven't quite mastered the form)

Though they're nothing like a limerick
