Still More Collected "LIMERRHOIDS" (oversized limericks with C-rhyme extensions)

 The contentious concept of extending limerick verses by adding a pair of C-line rhymes (and occasionally even D-line rhymes) to the standard A- and B-line rhymes was introduced by the prophetic work of Irish limericist Seamus O'Malley, as discussed in a blogpost HERE. 

  To assist readers' further understanding of this issue, the extension results in an elegant non-standard 7-line verse, which we have called a "LIMERRHOID". One should take care, however, as not all 7-line limericks are the result of applying O'Malley's modification. Care must be taken not to confuse this process with the less rigorous addition of extra A- or B-rhyme lines, that result in a "Run-On Limerick".

  In a follow-up post, HERE, we displayed our earlier work on the limerrhoid as disciples of O'Malley. Much to our surprise, we have prevailed over skeptical critics and editors at the collaborative website OEDILF (Omnificent English Dictionary in Limerick Form), with  completion of their rigorous editing process, and online publication of most of the limerrhoids in this earlier opus. 

  In the current post, we are displaying some of our more recent work on limerrhoids on a variety of topics. For the most part , these have not yet (February 2024) completed the process of rigorous multi-editor review at OEDILF, but we will note changes below as developments occur.   

final approval for poetry publication at the OEDILF collaborative writing site:
