Double Baloney ~~TWO~~ (a sort of sequel of 240 brief and quite standardly rhymed items to the same author's recent **Double Baloney**) has a noticeably divergent formulaic aspect. At the top of every textual page of Double Baloney ~~TWO~~ should be a limerick that perhaps none too galumphingly forms an entire sweeping sentence; at the bottom of each textual page should be an I LIKE sort of couplet the book's author awhile back invented and now very much enjoys composing.
