Is the limerick only for dirty jokes?
In this original anthology, some of the best poets working today tackle that question by writing chained limericks - poems where each stanza is a limerick.
You'll encounter dirges, existentialism, fantasy, science fiction, horror, postmodernism, and, yes, even some jokes.
Featuring work by Hugh Allison, Daniel Ausema, Madeline Barnicle, Jacob Bergstresser, Keyan Bowes, Patricia Court, Deborah L. Davitt, Robert Dawson, Lady Zinnia Fuchs, Joel Glover, Deneffew Gordon, J.D. Harlock, Erin M. Hartshorn, Jim Keller, Michelle Koubek, Gerri Leen, Daniel Lenois, Ian Li, Nico Martinez Nocito, Elis Montgomery, Russell Nichols, Gretchen Tessmer, and Veda Villers.
