Sherlock Fic: Comments on a blog entry

Kinda-sorta written for Challenge 003 at great_tales .  Actually is a 221B, sort of by mistake...






9:35PM
A pedestrian little GP
Tried his best a detective to be,

But he soon would discover
When he went undercover

He still looked like a little GP. 

 10:56PM
A consulting detective named Sherlock
Could find nothing to do but to mock

And his VERY LAME joking
Was so provoking

That it made the GP want to hurl rocks.
 
11:04PM
A blogger attempted to rhyme
And to beat out a meter in time.

His failed enterprise
Came as little surprise

Since his prose work was far from sublime.
 
11:10PM
Really, Sherlock? Making fun of my poetry now?
 
11:13PM
Really, John?   Calling that drivel poetry now? You have heard of meter, haven’t you? And did you really work on that travesty for an hour? 
 
11:15PM
We didn’t all go to public school you know. And another thing. It wasyOUR idea for me to chat that girl up in the pub for YOUR case.
 
11:18PM
It was not my idea that you tell her you were an actor! But point taken. In future I will sit back and watch you make a spectacle of yourself without comment like a true friend should.
 
11:22PM
don’t you hvae something better tobe doing?
 
11:23PM
No, actually. I’m bored.  You, on the other hand, are obviously tired and cranky, and your typography is suffering.  Go to bed.

This is brilliant!! I was just thinking that John's limerick was a bit poor, and then Sherlock confirmed it! Superb!

"Comments on a blog entry": In which goldvermilion87 figures out a way to do everything badly and claim that it is for the sake of the story. :-P (After spending far longer than necessary on that firat limerick, it was very freeing to know that I didn't have to try so hard on the second...though I did have to change some lines that fell into meter nicely into awkward not-so-meter-y lines.)

Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed. :-)
