After coming up with my first, second, and third limericks the other day, I have been thinking hard about what I can do with this new favourite pasttime. My conclusion was that it would be a good expenditure of my energy and time to come up with a set of limericks to catalogue all the lovers I've had in various neighborhoods around the world. Unfortunately, I've had, like, three "lovers", ever, and that's using the word "lover" EXTREMELY loosely...and a set of three limericks (one beginning with the line "I once kissed a man in Regina") is just too pathetic to really consider seriously.
So. *drumroll* I have decided to write a series of limericks about FAKE lovers I've had in various neighborhoods around the world! This opens up so many options, and I'm quite looking forward to it.
Neighborhoods/areas I want to cover in my new limerick series:
- Greenlake
- Queen Anne
- Silverlake
- Bel-Air
- Brooklyn
- SoHo
(I wanted to do one about the Meatpacking District, but, you know, too many syllables for it to be useful. But I already have an idea for it, so I may have to write a different kind of poem for that one.)
- Houston
- Dallas
- Austin
- Milan
- Rome
- Sicily
- Madrid
- Paris
- London
- Anguilla
- Bombay

I vote that Barcelona and Buenos Aires be added, but don't ask me why because I really have no justification.
Also, I vote for Waco. Why not?
