Flipped limerick challenge
We all know limericks. Light, funny, sometimes dirty, AABBA. Time to flip them. Can you express your best serious, dark, or twisted idea while keeping true to the limerick form? Let's take the whimsy out of whimsical!
Kmiller22 in Micropoetry

The world beats and pushes and breaks

They snap you over and pull out the stakes

With dirt below and clouds overhead

The world on accident makes sure you're dead

But He'll pull you out and help you see

What the world around won't let you be

You can be inspiring intelligent and kind

You and He can have an unbreakable bind

If only you treat those around with love

He'll teach you what it's like above

God and the world are not the same

He's just and has grace and love unfeigned

He'll give you peace and a kinder heart

If only you ask and give a sincere part

Our father above can handle all things

As long as you let Him and give Him the reins
