There once lived some goblins and gnomes.

They couldn't make rent on their homes.

Along came a witch.

She said: "Eat the Rich!"

Now their landlords serve as their loams.

CS Prompt: Little Limerick by @Dionysus

(Posted to DeviantArt October 2022)

The last of daedaddy's writing prompts I completed on the CS forum, it was short but straightforward: a minimum five-sentence story featuring goblins and gnomes. Not having much of a hand with either, I mused whether I could in fact complete a full story in only five sentences without cribbing either Victor Hugo or Scott Adams. This is the result, transcribed as the poetry it is. :p

Dumb & Dumber: "NOOOO YOU CAN'T ABOLISH THE FEUDAL SYSTEM WHO WILL OPPRESS THE PEASANTS NOOOOOO!!!"

Daenerys Targaryen: "haha fantasy maoism go brrrrrrrrr"
