“If people say, ‘He was here on earth to make sure tongue twisters and limericks got together,’ that’s not so bad. I was best man at the wedding.”

So says Lou Brooks, the man responsible for the delightful – and delightfully difficult to say – Twimericks: The Book of Tongue-Twisting Limericks, in a recent interview on one of our favorite blogs, House of Cat.

(Should your tongue become twisted into a Perfect Over-and-Underhand Bavarian Pretzel Knot, however, don’t say you haven’t been warned…)

Fred’s false teeth fell five hundred feet,
From the fifty-fourth floor onto 45th street,
Fred flagged a fleet florist,
With five ferns from the florist,
Who said, “Fred, now how will you eat?”

Can you say that five times fast? How about just once? The limerick tongue-twisters of Twimericks: The Book of Tongue-Twisting Limericks will have you flubbing words and switching syllables in nutty, poetic prose.
