New friends, or: At the dance

A limerick

Dirk ordered Scotches for new friends at the dance,
followed by several Bordeaux from France.
Lastly, for himself, a Belgian beer.
Then, as he turned, his ex pinched his rear.
Dirk squeaked, stumbled, & ruined his dance pants.

Let’s write poetry together!

When it comes to partnership, some humans can make their lives alone – it’s possible. But creatively, it’s more like painting: you can’t just use the same colours in every painting. It’s just not an option. You can’t take the same photograph every time and live with art forms with no differences.

–Ben Harper (b. 1969)
