The clerihew is a four-line poem with a rhyming scheme of AABB. The first line traditionally is, or ends in, a person's name; the meter is often mangled, if not ignored altogether; and the overall intent of the poem stresses entertainment over instruction, humor over fact. The term "clerihew" comes from Edmund Clerihew Bentley, who wrote the first known clerihew as a schoolboy. He went on to produce, under the name E. Clerihew B.A. (and with a little help from schoolmate G. K. Chesterton) a collection of clerihews called Biography for Beginners (1905). Bentley is also known for his groundbreaking mystery novel, Trent's Last Case (1911), which helped make plot and character as important as the puzzle in English detective fiction.

The Poor House Walls
By Paul McCann
John Wesley was a worried man .
He had a poor house plan .
To build with bricks made of bread,
slapped up with strawberry jam .
They said that bread would never do , in these hard times today . The poor house will come falling down, with no place left to stay.
