    God, an American Cat. That’s about the worst creature possible isn’t it? What hatred I have for that.

    Anna – the mythical friend,
    A sign Flood is right round the bend,
    He claims she’s his love,
    And not that damp glove,
    that nevertheless sees use no end!

    Limerick – a fixed verse form appearing first in The History of Sixteen Wonderful Old Women (1820), popularized by Edward Lear, and rhyming aabba, where a-lines have five feet and the b-lines three feet, and where the first and last lines end with the same word (a practice dropped in the 20th century). A limerick has been defined as “A comic poem consisting of one couplet of accentual Poulter’s Measure with fixed (internal) rhyme: 3aa2bb3a” (Malof, 204). Lear fused the third and fourth lines into a single line with internal rhyme. See anonymous examples or ones authored by such as Gelett Burgess and A. H. Reginald Buller.

    (Ha, we turned it upside down so that you would be lulled into a false sense of security).

    Flood covered the news,
    in a dress gaily flowered,
    and pretty, but very pink, shoes.
    Yet he was such a coward,
    he was soon overpowered
    by a poodle whom he had perused.
