Classical Composer Limerick #3

The young Johann Nepomuk Hummel
Once drank a whole litre of Kummel;
He said "I can hold it,
My heart will enfold it,"
But he couldn't control his loose bum-hole.

About the Author

Region, Country: London, Culture Capital of the World

Favorite Poets: Siegfried Sassoon, Wilfred Owen, Rupert Brooke, Chaucer, Shakespeare to name but a few. And VERY IMPORTANTLY: Erich Fried, a leftwing Austrian of Jewish ancestry who fled the Nazis and became a British citizen in 1949., And, other writers (non-poets mainly): Raymond Chandler, Irvine Welsh, Anthony Burgess, Graham Greene, Charles Bukowski, John le Carré, Anthony Horowitz, Mick Herron, Margaret Attwood, Edna O'Brian, Maeve Binchy., Writers who I find vastly over-rated: TS Eliot, Virgina Woolf, Sylvia Plath, Phil Larkin, E.A. Poe, A. Ginsburg, Longfellow, Gerald Manley Hopkins (actually I LOATHE Hopkins more than damson-dappled words can say).

I cannot...

for the life of me, understand, why you choose to write such pap, when clearly, you are capable of so much more. Be that as it may, a delightful sourness emanates from your pen to tread upon mankind's villains and submerge them in the toilet. ~ Geez.

You sound like...

a character in a story that I am currently reading. Corky Laputa in the novel "The Face" by Dean Koontz.
