Fall A-board - A limericked lesson on habit oppressin’



Fall A-board -
A limericked lesson on habit oppressin’

A tenant was paying his board,
When seemed more than he could afford.
“Why raise it?” he cried.
The landlord just sighed.
“The others moved out, ‘cause you snored.”

    While snoring may seem an opression
    Or cause for degrees of depression;
    It's not a bad habit
    (Like riding a rabbit)
    But a form of delightful expression!
