"The Comeandsee"

 

An exercise in limerick-and commercialism.

 

Come all of ye to the Comeandsee! Come and enjoy!It is open all year 'round. It is open only on the day before Tuesday and never the day before Monday and never before Saturday. See, hear, taste, touch, smell but never lay your hands on. Come one-come all! Come soon and have a ball! "It's stupendous!", says a man from Kansas writes. "A sensation!" declares a woman from Puagmatasquasenport. "My kids loved it!", said a man from the island nation of Burberry. Where are you and what are you waiting for? Come now! Come now! But not too soon! Get your tickets and show the whole room! It is open on a late night, a short night, a bad night-a fortnight. It will amaze and astound you, thrill you and may kill you. It's living, it's dead, it's multiple shades of gray and red. See it and hear it, and taste it and smell it. Say what you wish, but don't you dare tell it. Bring the kids, bring the dog, bring the serpent, bring a log. We accept all cash and all cards, bits of Legos and shards. We will take rupees and bearded dragons, old limericks and cats-two crows in a tree that say "this and that".So what are you waiting on? Oh what can it be? You have not lived my dear mate till you visit the comeandsee!
