I’ve met several women with rashes. They’re waiting to meet you, too….
Limerick Drill (Limerick-Off Monday) of MAD KANE’S HUMOR BLOG challenges readers/writers to write, obviously, LIMERICKS! This week’s suggested first line that I chose was:
A girl was upset by a rash…
Kiss me. It’s just a temporary facial rash.

Dorothy Parker and Men Seldom Make Passes at Girls Who Have Rashes*
1.
A girl was upset by a rash
she got worrying ’bout not having cash
So she married Joel
who bought and sold coal
and kept her ass happy in ash
2.
A girl was upset by a rash
when her boyfriend brought home succotash
she wondered how he
wasn’t sick just like she,
but he strained it first through his moustache
3.
A girl was upset by a rash
from eating folk’s leftover trash
I urge you not try it
it is a bad diet
and I don’t recommend the goulash
4.
A girl was upset by a lip rash
she got from her boyfriend’s moustache
she cut off his hair
while dead drunk, my dear,
Then later got caught up in whiplash.

Dorothy Parker
* A loose invocation to Dorothy Parker’s:
“Men seldom make passes at girls who wear glasses.”
Some of my favorite Parkerisms are:
“Tell him I was too fucking busy– or vice versa.”
“I like to have a martini,
Two at the very most.
After three I’m under the table,
after four I’m under my host.”
“Take me or leave me; or, as is the usual order of things, both.”
