I like rhyming

I like rhyming words with words,

It’s fun and entertaining too,

It’s not just for lit’rary nerds

Or just people feeling blue

I like making words say things

They would not never, ever say

Give them fingers and not wings,

Show them work, and not play

I like grammar that’s strangely twisted,

Not killed or mugged but Doctor Who-ed

Phrases only slightly misted

Not mangled by an insane prude

I like phrases that make me think

‘Your author is a genius cool’

They wrap 'round me like fur of mink

And inspire a feckless ugly drool

I like poems that seem crazy,

Lewis Carroll and Ogden Nash

Are my heroes, though I’m lazy

And so my poems read like trash.

I like rhyming words with words,

It’s fun and entertaining too

If you don’t like it, I think you’re turds

You belong back in the loo.
