Intriguing challenge... enjoyed your offering :)
soup du jour
I asked the waitress what was the soup du jour
Since it was Friday the 13th and might be obscure
She said: "normally it'd be clam chowder of course
But the owner just lost his horse
Best not to be guessing now for sure"

I once ate some fine fresh octopus
That latched ever so firmly on my epiglottis
As I turned bright blue
The sushi chef did misconstrue
And took a selfie of the three of us

The word is "hack" for Esther Chilton's limerick challenge this week: https://estherchilton.co.uk/2025/06/...cription_popup
There once was a crack in the code
and a hack from a coder who showed
if the hack fixed the crack
then the crack was the hack
and the code with the hack would explode.
I liked that sushi chef taking the selfie, tailor!
hack
hack was quite poetic
writing tomes with a pleasing aesthetic
though his postings have quelled
they were never misspelled
a virtuosity nigh onomatopoeic

This week the word is "block" for Esther Chilton's limerick challenge: https://estherchilton.co.uk/2025/06/...cription_popup
There once were some thieves and a clock
with a sonorous tick for each tock,
but the thieves weren't aware
that a lock was placed there
as a block of foul theft for our clock.
At least the hack could spell! Nice limerick, tailor!
It pains me to write this down:
I think I just murdered a clown.
I now wear a frown
because
I missed seeing him hit the ground.
Wont let me post my latest limerick (Banned) ???

Dunno...
Tried again... no joy with my usual formatting; perhaps use the quote tag: nope :(
Try my previous poem with its formatting...
