Multiple Lines Per Player: A Limericks Special Edition
help
Here's an experiment with the Limerick form. In this game (and this one only) it is permissible for players to contribute more than one line each to each limerick, just to see if we can increase the level of coherence in this much-loved form as practised in the Morniverse. Everything else is the same as normal... Take it away!

[CdM] Hey, it doesn't say anything in the rubric about less than one line being permitted :P
The spanner I keep in my tights
Gives the ladies delectable frights
While my handy hacksaw
Makes them all beg for more
It's only the chisel that blights
When Henry was courting his Anne
She coyly snapped open her fan.
"If you wish to wed me"
"And will not behead me
"You certainly can be may man"
Those men borne in May has got all,
They’re rich has good looks, most are tall,
They marry nice wife
And they get jolly life
Unlike those poor sods born in fall
A beautiful creature, the swan
Is just an elaborate con
You stretch a duck's neck
Then lime it like heck
And place it in l’arte de salon
Enormously thankful I am
That you saved me from all of this spam
Now my mailbox is filled
With new spam that’s been grilled
So I am free to use my web-cam putting that one to bed ...
I tried to find ice rinks to skate
On a trip to the Orange Free State
But all I could find
Was the roller-skate kind
Which started a heated debate
I've lost all my will to survive
Perhaps it is time to contrive
A method; a date
A partner, a mate
Who can jack up my lousy sex drive
I once found an ingot of lead
Tucked under the sheets of my bed
This slab of pure plumbum,
The cause of my numb bum,
Now anchors the wardrobe instead
My sandwiches fell in the bin
And got covered in raw chicken skin
At risk of contracting
Intestine extracting
I gulped a huge barrel of gin
I fear that that these strict Muslim loons
Who get angry at simple cartoons
Will settle the score
By being quick on the draw
And send round al-Qaeda's goons.
In a hut in north-western Nepal
An idol adheres to the wall
His one little eye
Sheds a tear by-and-by
For the fate that must surely befall. gulp

When writing invisible lines
Make sure that your sentence aligns,
There's such an edict-
The rules are quite strict
And breaking them may lead to fines
I once saw a ghost in the hall
Play lacrosse, with his head as the ball
And, in place of a stick
He was using his hand
As he whacked his own head off the wall
I once won a long game of Fives
On a journey I made from St Ives
I gave my opponent
One smashing component
Then chopped him alive with my knifes (tough game in St. Ives)
When cooking a spicy hot meal
Make sure to have chop-sticks of steel
A sealed horseradish flask
A masala gas mask
And tastebuds that have little feel
At last it is Valentine’s Day!
Prepared for a roll in the hay?
Or are you toute seule
The loneliest girl?
Whatever - save time and go gay!
Number one is the loneliest number
And alone is the loneliest slumber
So find number two
And make whoopee-doo
Nine months down number three you'll encumber
[P,D & i] Nice!
I get a peculiar feeling
Whenever I look at the ceiling
I find that its beams
Give me curious dreams
In which I hear the bells pealing
In a church on an isle in the Seine
Prays a man: "Dear Lord, tell me when
Will I understand why
