TWO RHETORICAL LIMERICKS

Submitted by joshua mertz on October 28, 2015

A grandiloquent rhetoritician
Discoursed on the slang use of bitchin'
"I may be pedantic
But the word drives me frantic
And sets my red pencil to itchin'"

I read this at Tuesday Night Poetry and an audience member, hearkening back to my infamous ecdysiast (a fancy name for a stripper) limericks, said I should write a limerick about an ecdysiast rhetoritician. So I sat down and did just that

An ecdysiast rhetoritician
Would take off her clothes and go fishin'
The men that she knew
Would come along too
And thought that her outfit was bitchin'
