Inside Dope

Posted on April 23, 2013 by twitmericks

A trainer who worked for a sheikh/
Admitted he made a mistake/
Insisting of course/
To dope the odd horse/
Was just his decision to take.

There is a young man named Luis/.

Whose serial biting must cease/

Hard in a manner which/

Could be a breach of the peace.

Pandering to Pandas

Posted on April 22, 2013 by twitmericks

There was a he-panda whose date

Showed no inclination to mate

So zookeepers planned

To give him a hand

In order to inseminate.

Race Riots

Posted on April 21, 2013 by twitmericks

There was a Grand Prix in Bahrain,
Though activists shouted in vain.
The right to protest
Was firmly repressed
For Formula 1’s greater gain.
