Clerihew Crazy

Alan Turing
sometimes during
even class, would ask
how one would ever know if a machine talked back.
 
clutching_calliope
has much more than a moiety
of writing talent. She crushed
the NaNo word count, without being rushed.

Tzara knows
why this name he chose
and it’s very true
no one can do a clerihew.


Tristan Tzara
the father of dada
went a little gaga
as poets do

shoots people and hits
the mark most times much closer
than might be admitted by even the poser

wrote a haiku
you won't find it here
it's now over there.

Tristesse2
decided to write a few
poems for the thirty thread
then decided not to instead

(our loss I'm afraid..) :eek:
 
Veuve Clicquot!
Not so sweet as those
other fancy-schmantzy wines.
Your effervescent taste, though, is divine!


Yes, yes, I know. Not really a clerihew. Not a person. Happy New Year, anyways, poets!

Elmer's glue
a throw-back to
kindergarten days
of glue sniffing ways


Tzara did it first
Library paste
had better taste
and it worked much better, too.
Got kids more high than Elmer's glue.

At least, that's what I remember. :)
 
The sweet Tristesse
seemed a tiny bit obsessed
about the rules of the clerihew, or maybe didn't.
The rules are not obscure, nor are the rules pure. They're simple: wing it, end it.

How bizarre, a
poet Tzara
started this debate.
T'wasn't me mate.
