For three years now,
John Moynes has beaten his brow,
Conjuring lyrical tricks,
In topical, daily ‘ricks,
But owing to family health issues he’s taking a short rest,
All at the ‘sheet wish him the very best
All those of us who read John’s rhymes
Which tried chronicle our changing times
Do wish him the best
And a little bit of rest
So when he returns he’ll be in his primes

Mick Flavin
All the best, John. Hope all works out ok.
Kieran NYC
Good luck, John. Hope everything turns out ok.
I promise not to read limericks by anyone else until your return. Have a good Christmas.
Slightly Bemused
Aw shucks! and I put such effort into that one… :)
I’m worried when Chompsky arrives
And tries, how he does, -how he strives
But he can’t seem to see
(Like Moynsey and me)
Limericks, their lines come in FIVES.
Fives I said, not sixes. Never sixes.
Best wishes John
Slightly Bemused
interestingly sestets have six lines, and can take a form similar to a limerick in their rhyme pattern…
And don’t worry Chompsky, I think I’m close to getting it.
That was a very good effort at bad poetry, and I couldn’t have done worse meself.
Six lines?
6 lines?
-What were you thinking Man?
-I’ve been reading it and re-reading it for hours now, in all the accents I can think of.
It still wont scan properly for me.
I demand my money back, instantly.
Thank you.

What exactly are the family health issues?
ESV
Goodness, you’re right! WE SHOULD ALL KNOW. It’s completely our business, after all. What else would you like to know about his private life? I’m sure the lads will work quickly to get that information to you.
ESV
PS hope your family member feels better, JM.
Mick Flavin
Delete this trolling scrotum. He’s always at it.
Gerry Johns
I was just wondering.
Hank
Stop being a tool.
All the best John.
Mani
Not to be confused with a strolling scrotum. The first sign you have a wandering testicle.
Ferret McGruber
Good luck John. Thanks for your poetical endeavours.

Thanks for the limericks, and I hope John’s family health issues have a safe and good outcome.

May wellness be on the way Moynser.

Hank

there was a man named Hank
who didn`t like for my flow
he can go to hell
his mum`s a skanky ho

Hank`s mum has aids
his dad is a fool

Sincerely sorry to note Johnny Moynes sick leave
But wtf BS. Family matters and heath matters no ones business only the Moynes’
And private and personal stuff is always off limits.
If yere that stuck for personal drama get Mick the Flavin to do another pic
Chompsky
Sorry Frilly, we felt it appropriate to explain some background as John hasn’t missed a limerick a day since he started ‘ricking on the site in 2011.

Fair dues to you and the rest of the BS team, Chompsky. Thanks for letting us know.

I wrote this poem just to say
I’m thinking of you, John Moynesie, today
Though your meter is poor and your scansion erratic
You actually sort of get used to it after a while

I can’t stand the awful shite he does write.
That said, I hope him and his are alright.

To a poet who’s always seemed sound
Best wishes and thanks do abound
For his daily limericks
The reaction was mixed
But you’ll miss him when he’s not around
All those of us who read John’s rhymes
Which tried chronicle our changing times
Do wish him the best
And a little bit of rest
So when he returns he’ll be in his primes

A sestet is always preceded by an octave, and bears bugger-all relationship to the mighty limerick.
Don’t get me fookin’ started on bleedin’ poetry.
I get meself into a terrible fluster, and who knows what might happen?
And don’t worry Chompsky, I think I’m close to getting it.
