In my current quest of learning and trying every style of poetry I stumbled across "Clerihews" tonight and thought I'd give the style a try. Here's some humorous Halloween Clerihews about some famous scary characters. Update/Repost: **Rewrote some of these and added a few more** The Wicked Witch of the West Is feeling very depressed The hag soon disappears As she melts away in her tears Alcoholic Frankenstein's Drunk again on Vino wine Yet his walk is not the clue He staggers when he's sober too! Imprudent Count Dracula Riding in an Acura Got injured in a car wreck After biting the drivers neck Casper the Friendly Ghost Vacationed on the coast He tried but failed to tan For only the living can Michael Myers Has bad desires And causes fright On Halloween night Wicked Freddy Krueger Has claws like a cougar You better stay awake For your life is at stake The Creature from the Black Lagoon Once sauntered into a saloon And scared away all the outlaws With his scaly skin and claws The cranky Mummy Is a dummy For taking cigarette drags And setting afire his rags Mean Hannibal Lechter The keen cuisine collector Will welcome you into his shanty You'll taste good with some Chianti Phsychotic Mr. Hyde Is Jekylls' evil side The doctor drank his brew And one man became two King Kong combated Godzilla The match went to the gorilla The lizard ain't quite the menace When it comes to playing tennis [This message has been edited by Xillus_Xavier (10-31-2007 08:37 PM).] |

X_X, you know I love your clever clerihews! They read better now that you have them separated into stanzas. btw, you can go into edit (paper and pencil icon above your poem and drop the Hannibal line down to the next stanza.) Thoroughly enjoyed! Happy Halloweenie hugs, EA  |
