Isaac Asimov and John Ciardi, Purveyors of Smut

Whose pens were governed by hard-ons
     Nasty limericks they did write
     Causing me quite a fright
To erase these thoughts I 'll need multiple Krylons




From Isaac Asimov:

From John Ciardi:

Dammit—Think of the rollicking times I've missed because we didn't read Ciardi's limerick translation for my Dante seminar!

Oh, he's going to see ol' Dante in the nether realms for these limericks, you can be sure of that.
