Moved from the Challenges page - it should probably be here or in Contests

A DROD challenge... but not a conventional one.

Write a DROD limerick. The best one will get modpoints. Post it to this thread. I'll judge in a week or so.

Just for reference - the rhyme/syllable scheme will be strictly enforced Five lines long, rhyming scheme AABBA. "A" lines should all have the same number of syllables (7-10) and B lines should all have the same number of syllables (4-6).

Wonder how to get rid of this horde?
You will find, when a moment you've pored
Over how to approach
Such a torrent of roach,
That you just need a Really Big Sword.

A Slayer's a frightening thing,
Especially when trying to sing;
When he opens his throat
And shrieks out that high note -
It's so bad it'll make your eyes sting.

Edit: Another one (apologies but very little rhymes with Erik):

Our favourite young programmer, Erik
Decided to drive up to Berwick.
But approaching a pass
He went a bit fast
And he crashed the car into a derrick.

When making his way to the City
Our Beethro sung a wee ditty.
The song didn't rhyme
Though his voice was sublime
That said, his face is not pretty.
