NaPoWriMo Day 14: Vaguely Insulting and Not Very Good

Clerihews for the Unlucky Few

Lin-Manuel Miranda
got dark circles like a panda
only owns a single sweater
best achievement was rhyming Burr, sir

Tara Madrone
Got a new case for her phone
Purple is the color she likes
Spends all day working with tykes


James Teebes Kelso
Likes to fly solo
Never will he pass up a pun
Does that really make him fun?
 


Larry Dennison
Well, he's pretty fun
Very good at cooking
But rather less good-looking
 


Rick Dennison
Taught me how to make a pun
His record collection is off the hook
But has he ever read a book?
 


Robert Downey Jr
You'll find that he's no amateur
If asked a question at Sundance or Cannes
He just says "I am Iron Man" 

Chris Evans
Is a gift from the heavens
If you're funny he'll grab a left boob
In some ways, he's just a loveable noob








Notes: So I learned a new type of poem called a clerihew and I'm addicted. The first line is a name, the second line rhymes with that name, and then the last two lines are a couplet. They're usually about famous people and should make fun of the person a bit. Try it! It's very fun.
