There once was a man with size tens.

[Shardik]

There once was a man with size tens
Who threw them at a Pretenze
He missed with the right
and he missed with the left
But still caused soiled Depends.

[TomInTib]

1. And...

when asked why he did it
he said, "Make them quit it
And I'll do it again
If I can"

[Shardik]

4. Great second verse, Tom!

:)

[Bicoastal]

2. ALMOST a great limerick...

....but it's a pity "right" and "left" don't rhyme.

Howabout--

"There once was a man with size tens
Who threw them both at a Pretenze
Both the right and the left
Missed the target when heft
But they still caused some soiled Depends."

Better?

3. There once was a dude named Maliki...

There once was a dude named Maliki,
Who wanted the presser to be a quicky,

While he couldn't stop the leather
From being thrown together

Toward his head, it made his underwear more stinky.


On edit: I'll work on it ok? Move along....

5. The Chimp in Iraq was attacked

The Chimp in Iraq was attacked
Giving a Presser in a room that was packed
A man threw a shoe
That elicited some poo
Before the podium sitter could react

[FloridaJudy]

6. The Lame Duck, a malicious old beast

The Lame Duck, a malicious old beast
Should have skipped seeing the Middle East
While "ducking" some shoes
He was there heard to muse
"Well it wasn't a pretzel at least".

[girl gone mad]

7. ...

There once was a man from Iraq,
a dull tool from abroad he attacked.
With left shoe, then right
gave the goofus great fright,
while a spokeswhore's eye was made black.

[Shardik]

9. WOOT!

Best of the lot so far!

[unblock]

8. my turn :

there once was a raker of muck
whose terms had just run out of luck

when they saw an attack
by a middle east hack

his agent just told him to duck

[DemoTex]

10. Haiku:

The Brogan toss was
slightly off as tosses go.
Bush shakes in his skins.

[Voice for Peace]

11. can anyone fix this one?

The highest insult in the Land,
two shoes catapulted by hand:
this rational passion
in national fashion
deserves a new song from The Band

[Shardik]

12. Great! I don't think it needs fixing.

[FloridaJudy]

13. Here's one my ex just wrote:

Bush thought everyone was a sucker,
Then an Iraqi said, "Take that, you fucker!"
Without further ado,
He lobbed him his shoe.
But Bush ducked. Is he just a lame ducker?
