Couplets and copulation

Limericks, oh dear...

The gift of a Limerick is that it imparts perfect comic timing to the weakest of jokes and puns, and works particularly well with obscenity.

Limericks work well with weak or abominably forced rhymes - but they don't work at all if the meter is wrong.

Remind me, some time, to Limerick the Rhythm Method.
