are R- to X-rated. Those with numeric-only labels are my own, those labeled "OP" are from Other Posters, and the ones with "PD" labels are in the Public Domain. You may email me at limericist@cox.net.

OK. Guess it's time I 'splained what prompted Okiejokey to post that one. (He's my younger brother, by the way.)
I'm in the early stages of putting some of my better Philthy ones into book form -- perhaps to be self-published -- but I may see if some company might do it for something better than a 90-10 split (and you know who'd get the 90%.)
Anyway, I sent him the Foreword I'd written to "Limericks, Crude and Lewd" and he had the gall (and talent) to respond with his comment. Fuckin' show off! :-)
The purpose behind this limerick’s composition may someday be revealed by The Limericist.

Very nice. You don't post a lot of them, but when you do they're high quality.
