OTD 1600 Outrage as reports Tyrone passed within a musket shot of the gates of Cork in broad daylight 'but not one shot discharged at them..the mayor would not suffer one shot to be made'. Also serious doubts about the 'disloyal dealings of the citizens of Limerick'

There once was an angry hockey puck
In a rink of chips and cracks and dirty muck
"Give me space
Clean up the place
If you fall I won't give a fuck."

We hiked along the gentle hills
Walked toward the sea past daffodils
Unfolded before us
Visions glorious
The tales of pirates and wreckage with treasure spills.

Ode to beads (#Aztec no. 33)
On your journey to Mictlan you’ll need
Warm clothing, food, drink… and a bead;
We know it sounds funny
But the jade was like money
To pay for your soul to be freed.

Our latest - an ode to warrior-musicians:-
There was a young man from Otumba
Who fought as if dancing the rumba.
He brandished obsidian,
His movement Euclidean
To the rhythm of Zumba que Zumba.

LIMERICK (2/2)

To the right there's Ian, the lead engineer and builder of the Limerick. He's a lot more tired and apathetic than the rest of the crew, but has a few sparks of interest that drive him along. Finally, Chrysia is a god of destruction wrapped in a very soft shell.

LIMERICK (1/2)

This was an attempted comic about a near-future mercenary band of the warship CPS Limerick. The crew is lead by Chalkou, an overworked, short-tempered genius military tactician, and Tetsu an equally bright but indecisive second-incommand.

Do you like poetry? How about having a spooky limerick day? We’ll start:

Ember's got so much to say,
and she says it in such a nice way!
The gods will not help,
She states with a yelp,
The flames make an ugly display.

Your turn!
