My Year of Writing Dangerously

On the spur of one of my (increasingly rare) moments of inspiration, I decided that in order to maintain my artistic integrity, and because I can't keep calling myself a writer for much longer without actually WRITING something, I am going to write a poem a day for the next year. The first poem will be posted on August 10, 2010 and the last poem will be posted on August 10, 2011. (Unless, of course, I decide to keep going.) Not all of the poems will be good, and DEFINITELY not all of them will be interesting, but I will gaze around my kitchen, my living room, and Coming Home Cafe until something inspires me, then write a poem about it, as well as my random thoughts on the mundane things that no one notices, but which it is my goal to immortalize over the course of this year.

Day 14/Day 15 - ♫Workin 9 to 5♫ (...but not really)

A couple limericks I wrote as part of whoring myself out for the ladder game at the PNE. Although this particular whoring is actually quite fun.. but that's another story. Just read the poems.

Note: In terms of the first line of No. 1, the best prize at my game is an ipod nano, its not just some random line.
The last line of the same poem, on the other hand, IS just some random line.

1
It's ipod nano time
Three dollars for a climb
Or five for two
It's up to you
Just hear this silly rhyme

2
Come here and climb the ladder
The wobble doesn't matter
A prize to take
A piece of cake
Miss out and you'll be sadder
