Cleri Who's Who
help
Four lines rhyming AABB - scansion, rhythm, metre and all that malarkey is as random as-u-like. Oh yes - the featured subject, usually a person, is mentioned in the first line.
Here's a full and frank(ly better) intro by Thos along with some that were made earlier.
The fragrant Camilla
Is as likely to become Queen of England as Gus the Gorilla (just reinforcing the point about scansion, rhythm and metre)
But Charles loves the wizened old hag
Which is understandable, since various parts of his body also sag.
MacArthur will soon be a dame
Which is not at all a shame
When you take into account
the mileage she managed to amount.
Henry Ford
Told his board
That the company would take a different tack
So he gave himself the sack.
Condoleeza Rice
Is she naughty or nice?
Given that her name sounds like a high-rise prostitute [2 z's, I think - Condoleezza]
It may be to the Americans' advantage that they found a substitute.
The millionaire businessman, Alan Sugar
Prefers football to rugger
Although his favourite football team
Appears to have run out of steam.
Jeremy Paxman (Darren) And coal, and water, and oil, and the driver doesn't "know the road".
Is known to his friends as "The Axeman"
Ever since
He chopped Michael Howard into mince. Did you threaten to overrule him?
Michel Pignolet de Montéclair
Often thought it was terribly unfair
He didn't have enough time to compose
But may still influence future Rameau's
The Master of the West Kent Hunt
Is more than happy to bear the brunt
Of Tony's wrath
And tell it not in Gath.
Saff African Retief Goosen *several accents declared*
Stephen Leaney's game will loosen I had to research this, you know! The only golfer I know is Jack Nicklaus..:)
But not his pants I'm plumbing the depths because I'm refusing to research anything.
Which are held up by ants I'm beyond caring about anything...
Ken Livingstone
Is on the phone
He's concerned that people think him sim'lar
To a sketch Gerald Scarfe had made of Picasso drawing a picture of Queen Victoria channeling the future spirit of Derek Acorah picking up a psychic message from Frankie Howerd concerning the reproductive equipment of Heinrich Himmler.
Snookerist Jimmy White
Held his cue too tight
And because of this
Played like piss.
Ernö Rubik
Made puzzles cubic
For a time they were de rigeur
Although why is hard to figure.
"Still-in-the-running" Lord Coe
Has an Olympic bid on the go
But we'll always remember him best
As a man who ran fast in a vest
[K,R,D,T] :-)
Risque comedian Chris Rock
Will, during the Oscars, mock
many, but Razzie-winner Halle Berry
Will escape with just a gentle poke from England and Chelsea defender, John Terry. allegedly
H. G. Wells
Was driven to the end of his tether by the sound of bells
Whereas Edgar Allan Poe
Gladly gave them a go.
