Asimov's Limericks

Article.

Sounds like some sort of contest going on, too, but Swanwick assumes I know what he's talking about and searching turns nothing up such as an earlier blog entry on it.

Here is an oddity from Authorised Murder

The prose reads like a Walt's, at times. And rearranging a few terms from the beginning words, we have:

Trace back the violent death
Of a friend and see how it happened.
It wouldn't have happened if
A hadn't happened first, and if
B hadn't taken place before it.
And, so on, through time's primordial mists.

It doesn't follow rhyme rules, but does follow meter rules...weird.
