Lol... good one.
out of touch... https://www.google.com/search?num=10...1mhJXVIkw,st:0
there once was a man named Dutch
who imbibed just a wee too much
when the room began reeling
the twilight zone soon revealing
him out of time... out of touch

кайф
alchemy made Sergei rich beyond avarice
such was his occupation among the Cheremis
but it wasn't his transmutations into gold
that made him widely extolled
rather his potion that provided pure bliss

I’m a few pages behind. I did Esther’s challenge for soup. Cold soup anyway:
I went to the cafe with Chacho
And ordered a big plate of nachos
The waiter was zealous
Misfortune befell us
He brought a big bowl of Gazpacho
More cold soup
Sorry ‘bout this one, folks.
There was a young chap named O'Kelly
Who wanted a soup at the deli
Chose Vichyssoise
Had a je ne sais quoi
Or else it simply was smelly
Lolol limericks... Enjoyed :)

Nice limericks, tailor and Sancho!
Esther Chilton's prompt this week is "rock": https://estherchilton.co.uk/2025/08/...cription_popup
The old clock’s now as hard as a rock.
It is timelessly ticking each tock.
It still hangs on the wall
since it’s pretty and all,
but it’s not of much use as a clock.
Enjoyed :)
Will try back a bit later...
rock limerick #x
tailor really liked his rock
and his eclecticism included Bach
but he toed the line at the Eagles
Tom Petty and some Flock of Seagulls
and Elvis... he never could grok

There was a young fellow named Jacques
Who tried for a rhyme with rock
It was absurd
Could not find a word
While suffering a case of writer’s block
Nice limericks, tailor and Sancho!
Esther Chilton's word this week is "just": https://estherchilton.co.uk/2025/08/...cription_popup
Well, I just want to say I don’t trust
all the news that I hear, but I must
let the dust settle, too.
It’s the least I can do –
and the most – since I can’t control dust.
Nice
Hmmm, thinking of one…
There once a chap named Gus
Who searched for place that was just
Looked far and wide
But could not abide
And in the end he just cussed
Good ones... will try to come up with something :)
just bear with me
something was niggling on my mind
fleshing it out was undefined
had I taken my meds
before reading these threads
just bear with me as I rewind

Esther Chilton's prompt this week is "weigh": https://estherchilton.co.uk/2025/09/...cription_popup
The new scale she bought yesterday
has said what she feared it would say.
She should lose one or two
maybe more than a few
of the pounds that it said she might weigh.
:)
Weigh the Anchor!
"Weigh the floggin' anchor!"
Jack Ketch bellicosely spat with rancor
"Hoist the Jolly Roger into the blue!
A hogshead of grog each when we're through.
Now avast! ye slovenly scrimshankers!!!"

Arggg!
Bah-hahaha!
Good one, Tailor
I once knew a gal named Faye-Faye
I asked her — How much you weigh, Faye?
Shook her head and snorted
And then she retorted
Not with an answer, but only a neigh-neigh
(She’s about 1200 lbs on 4 hooves)
