Write as short a rhyming, two-line poem as you can. Try to use as few syllables per line as possible.

Muhammad Ali wrote one, using only two one-syllable lines:

"Me:
Oui!"


Here's one from me to begin with:

Bush:
Douche.


Edit: Er, I meant the President tharrrr. Not, er, the 1990s rock band. ;)

    just
    lust
    Down the street you can hear her scream youre a disgrace
    As she slams the door in his drunken face
    And now he stands outside
    And all the neighbours start to gossip and drool
    He cries oh, girl you must be mad,
    What happened to the sweet love you and me had?
    Against the door he leans and starts a scene,
    And his tears fall and burn the garden green

    I
    sigh


    Oui
    we


    gone
    calm


    tall
    fall
    The only thing I enjoy is having no feelings....being numb rocks!

    And I won't make the same mistakes
    (Because I know)
    Because I know how much time that wastes
    (And function)
    Function is the key
