Clerihew
They are four lines long.
The first and second lines rhyme with each other, and the third and fourth lines rhyme with each other.
The first line names a person, and the second line ends with something that rhymes with the name of the person.
A clerihew should be funny, but doesn't have to be.

Example:
E. C. Bentley
Mused while he ought to have studied intently;
It was this muse
That inspired clerihews.
My attempt:
Joanna L. Drake
Accidentally made a mistake;
Instead of studying at an easy pace
She chose to get on MySpace.
