Fitting A Limerick On Twitter Ain’t Easy!
Oy! The contortions I had to go through to fit a meta-limerick about NPR’s poetry-tweet contest into a tweet!
I HATE the 140-character (including hashtag) limit! GRRR!
This limerick looked perfectly normal before I was forced to alter it to fit into a tweet: (It even had proper punctuation, spelling, and spacing.)

4 NPR glory;No purse
So dont curse.Just compoz
Ur poems,not proz
