Good one, Bill. Poor old Mikey, I guess he had that coming. Perhaps he should have aspired to acquire some of Biff's IT skills and then he could have satisfied his needs on screen, one step removed from the arms of the law. Kelly

Hello there, Bill
This is interesting...
Although the syllable set-up isn't quite a limerick, the rhythm comes across as such. I don't know if this is supposed to be humorous or not...
I don't what a 'Biff' is. Maybe it's an American term...
I read a couple of the reviews and saw that people thought a man being beaten to death by a copper was funny?
Am I missing something here?
kind regards

Thanks for reviewing, Tracey. Biff is a man's name. Some folks, I guess, have no use for perverts. Fortunately, it's just a short poem and no one was harmed in its creation.

True...
Perverts, or 'flashers' as we call them here in the U.K. serve no fruitful purpose in society. However, I don't consider beating a man to death because he shows his cock off in public to be sane.
Sorry, Bill, but I don't find brutality on any level funny.
Comment from MacMhuirich
This is a very interesting poem, the imagery is quite fun. Just as he was learning something new:-
Mikey learned the art from Biff
who used to show his junk on 5th
"til he learned to make a .gif
from some IT pals - the copper makes him an ex-flasher. Thank you for sharing.
Bless you

I loved reading the rolling three line rhyme followed by a single non-rhyming line.
The final stanza had me laughing so hard. I couldn't type right away.
Mikey should have stayed on the net, but I guess he liked personal, up-front, in-your-face reactions. lol

You have created an interesting poem, somewhat comical and very colorful. I can almost see the scene.
The last part sort of threw me, that is, it ended abruptly. Perhaps that is the magic of it, however, the stop is exactly what happened to Mickey.
Good work.

Comment from Phyllis Stewart
LOL! Shocking last line... perhaps a bit harsh for sad ole Mikey, who was just doin' his thing... with his thing. It's his way of pursuing happiness, so why take his life and liberty for it? So un-American! :)

Bill;
-eewww! What an Ugly way to die Being naked in a trenchcoat lying in a flower shop.
-I get a tendency of making me laugh so much Bill.
-I just really like your three verse poem that almost sounds like a limerick But if not for the rhyming words.
-Thank you for sharing and posting and may the Lord be with you forever Bill.

hahahahahaha! Good on the copper! Get rid of the bum!
A fun poem - one in which, I'm assuming, no one was ACTUALLY hurt during the creation of...? *smile*
Thanks for sharing and for the smile!
