Fantastic! I knew somebody out there would answer my plea. I also like the innuendo in the third one!
how about "poemrankers = word-wise wankers"?
This poem must be one of those Brit things; ich verstehe das nicht. Poemchancre.
A clerihew is a two-lined poem, the first being someone's name, the second being a (witty) rhyme with that name. Hope that clears things up - have a go yourself, 'tis very amusing!!!
I see your point, but seing as "merchant bankers" is Cockney rhyming slang for wankers, I felt it would be better put as the former.
A very poor, and needlessly rude example of poetry. I will admit that clerihews are not known for quality, but for wit. However, this is just rude.
By the way Nicholas Jones = Legend.
"I will admit that clerihews are not known for quality, but for wit."
You whopping idiot.
Excellent, there can be no more fitting tribute to the poet or indeed welshness than rhyming Jones with trombone.
