Poems inspired by Google's priciest adwords

By at 1:01 am Friday, May 12

Jacob sez, "Inspired by the list of most expensive Google words you linked to, I've started a series of poems based on those words. I'm hoping to prove that poetry can be profitable."

mesotheliomas
happen most frequently
inside folks' pleuras.

Then they get bloodthirsty
mesothelioma
lawyers to harass their
stingy insurers.

A Clerihew on "Chicago Personal Injury Attorney", A Higgledy-Piggledy on "Mesothelioma Lawyers", A Song Parody On "Lasik New York City", A Limerick on "Asbestos Attorney" (Thanks, Jacob!)
