Why Do You Love Potholes?

This is the 43rd installment of Rhyme and Reason, my weekly set of limericks for the Sunday Times of India edit page.

KAUR BLIMEY

On Thursday, I watched Harmanpreet Kaur
Play a knock that left me wanting more.
What a game? What a show!
And now I want to know
Why had I not heard of her before?

POTHOLES

I hauled a neta over the coals.
I said, “Bhai, why do you love potholes?”
He said, “Bro, they’re a dream.
They’re my revenue stream.
Kickbacks from repairs are my bankroll.”
