i need an clerihew poem?

The most famous are by E. C. Bentley

George the Third

Ought never to have occurred.

One can only wonder

At so grotesque a blunder.

Said Christopher Wren,

"I am going to dine with some men.

If anyone calls,

Say I am designing Saint Paul's."

W. H. Auden has written some good ones:

Whenever Xantippe

Wasn't feeling too chippy,

She would bawl at Socrates,

"Why aren't you Hippocrates?"

William Blake

Found Newton hard to take

And was not enormously taken

With Sir Francis Bacon.

Sir Robert Liston

Used a saw like a piston;

He was that elated

When he amputated.

They are very easy to write

Barak Obama

Called for his Mama

When he heard the execs

Wrote themselves checks.

Tupak Shakur

Died rich, not poor;

His songs lived on

After he was gone.
