Too Much

Sheamus the Leprechaun
does not know what is going on.
He drank so much green beer that,
it turned him green and knocked him flat.

Week # 35
Write a poem using the Clerihew form about a leprechaun.
A Clerihew is a comic verse consisting of two couplets and a specific rhyming scheme, aabb invented by Edmund Clerihew Bentley (1875-1956) at the age of 16. The poem is about/deals with a person/character within the first rhyme. In most cases, the first line names a person, and the second line ends with something that rhymes with the name of the person.

Example:

The Road Runner
always almost a goner;
when attacked in manner dread,
Wile E. suffers intended fate instead.
