Thread: Letting Cats Out of the Bag

Freeing cats is so effortless when
You open the bag and all ten
fly out screetching, berserk.
It is ten times more work
To stuff them back in there again.

"License and registration, please... Whad'ya got there?"

"Eh, 'nothin, Officer."

"Why's it movin' then?"

"Okay. It's rabid weasels."

You are both incorrigible. And I love it that you are! Nice one obi.

Thanks, glad you liked it. My daughters didn't so much.

Getting those cats back is a wonderful thought. Loved it.

I like it, especially the use of enjambment. And you can never go wrong with limericks. But I don't know, opening a bag is pretty darn easy, like say, if difficulty was a scale between 0 and 100, opening a bag would be like a 0.5, so ten times that would be only 5. And I personally have never stuffed ten cats back into a bag, but it sounds like at least a solid 10/100 difficulty I'm just joking around with that comment. In all seriousness, the word "ten" flows well and keeps the syllable count the same between the rhyming lines. I found this poem hilarious, because it is probably true.
