Iambic Wotsit

Ohh, don't ya know

I'm a professional poet

And I'll brag about it

Blow me own trumpet loudly

Get too big for me boots

A bit like KP really! Heehee

I'll explain things fully to ya

Those iambic wotsits -

Iambic pentameter thingies

Aren't thy something of architecture - 

Iambic columns

And I know what a Haiku is -

It's a foreign sneeeze

Hai-choo, not Ah-choo!

I'll be full of alliterations and acrostics

And various formats -

8.8.8.8., 6.7.3.8. or even 56.34.82.27.

Sounds like someone playing bingo!

Fido told me all this - 

Was he telling me the truth, or pulling my leg

Just to humour me, to keep me quiet?! LOL
