Limerick Friday LXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXV: More Flops Than A Fat Kid At The Pool, Plus Rejection The Theme Of “Mad Men”


Wanted to see what NBA playoffs was about
And a Euroleague soccer match broke out
Flopping around like gutted fish
Whining, falling and the occasional swish
Basketball has become the WWE, no doubt

Lives shattered
Belongings scattered
The air a turbulent force
Screams ‘til they were hoarse
Oklahoma, resilient but battered

Excellence comes with a cost”
The loss of shows like “Lost”
Plus “Touch” and “Fringe”
“The Office” left an emotional twinge
TV’s bad enough without good shows being tossed

Blue tents pierce the heavy air
Loss scattered here and there
Symbolize broken hearts
Signify the ends to starts
And an ascension to where

At work, Megan with much to learn
Joan rebuffed Roger with a burn
Don slept with his ex, unplanned
But skinny Betty now has hand
And lonely Peg has nowhere to turn
