Aclerihew is a whimsical, four-line biographical poem invented byEdmund Clerihew Bentley. The first line is the name of the poem's subject, usually a famous person put in an absurd light. The rhyme scheme is AABB, and the rhymes are often forced. The line length and meter are irregular. It is biographical and usually whimsical, showing the subject from an unusual point of view; it mostly pokes fun at famous people
It has four lines of irregular length and metre (for comic effect)
The rhyme structure is AABB; the subject matter and wording are often humorously contrived in order to achieve a rhyme, including the use of phrases in Latin, French and other non-English languages[2]
The first line contains, and may consist solely of, the subject's name. According to a letter in the Spectator in the 1960s, Bentley said that a true clerihew has to have the name "at the end of the first line", as the whole point was the skill in rhyming awkward names.[3]


For Forms Sake

Edmund Clerihew Bentley was a novelist and poet.
Early in his life he shaped Clerihews, became famous and that's how we know it.
In the sunset of his years, as he lived 'til he was eighty,
he had a run of detective novels both intricate and weighty.
