I like the limerick challenge because I just can’t resist bad puns, limericks, haiku, song parody, and similar nonsense.

Madeline! began Kane, come quickly! …
Madeline began, “Kane? come closer.” …
Madeline began. Kane – standing across the room – …
Madeline began (Kane was invisible…
Or with more literary license, (I must get mine renewed someday) we can change her name to Madeline Had-Begun Kane.

I’ve always enjoyed reading Mad Kane’s writings. She deserves your tribute. Or maybe not since your tributes can be questionable at times?
@Larry – All (virtual) roads lead to Mad Kane’s door?
