due to some nasty
rhinoplasty.

forrest gump
told donald trump
"you know i like you
we have the same IQ"

Trump the president reigning,
Continues his election campaigning
To hear people proclaiming
His name is entertaining.

Personally I prefer the limerick form:

Trump is the mouthpiece for Bannon,
Who won a race he never ran in
Those ignorant clods
Both believe they are gods
And they ought to be shot from a cannon.
 
Okay.

Herr Bannon can be rather blunt,
And often has used the word c**t.
He was overheard,
To make it a verb,
But Trump just screamed 'Fake News Stunt.'
 
There once was a fat orange turd
Who boasted the brain of a bird
His wife was a looker
Who once was a hooker
Together they looked quite absurd.
 
No more rhymes now, I mean it.

E said in an effort to unhinge
The series of rhymes
Used for passing the times
And bashing the Trump in a poem binge.


That ought to put a stop to it!
Trump told Big Oil Spokesperson Pruitt
You released your emails,
And all they entail,
Is you worked for your bosses and knew it!

With a reach like that, you could be an NBA star. :rolleyes:
 
So i went and looked up clerihew.
The first line is the name of the poem's subject, usually a famous person put in an absurd light, or revealing something unknown and/or spurious about them.
The rhyme scheme is AABB, and the rhymes are often forced.
The line length and metre are irregular.

OOOH! The rhymes are OFTEN forced!

President Donald J. Trump
Said "I'll See You In Court" to a clump
Of three justices Federal
Who said 'your racism can't go ahead pal.'
 
Reality Star Donny Trump
Has a hairdo that looks like a toxic waste dump
His Florida staff often culls
Big following flocks of hungry seagulls.
 
The very best thing about El Cheato
Is that at least we don't have to look at him in a speedo.
There are some things that all can agree on
Like how there are people that we should all pee on.
 
Donald J. Trump has said 'please,
If you cooks are trying to appease,
Make less food with fungus
But load up the hummus
Because I just learned it's made with chickpeas.'
