553. It happened in Chicago

Forgive me for the quality of this limerick.  I hate using "near rhymes" as they are a sure sign of a poor poet.

While wooing a girl, this dude, Lasater,
Decided to wave his bare ass at her.
'Twas Valentine's Day
And suffice it to say
What ensued can be viewed as a massacre!


I probably should have made line 5 read
  This was not how to make the best pass at her.
but I wanted a reference to the Chicago gangland slaying of 2/14/29.

  1. Just a suggestion, but The Limericist might want to consider changing line one's "guy" to "dude." This would enhance the assonance already present in "woo," "ensued" and "viewed."
