Charlie Chaplin - Clerihew

Charlie Chaplin’s his name
“Slap stick” brought him fame
Chuckled when I watch his flick
But never saw him “slap a stick”

Charles, BIG congratulations. The only thing preventing this one from being even higher is that you forgot to write Charlie Chaplin in the title line!! Hope you will edit it so that his name will show on the winners' list. I loved this one. Very cleverly done and congratulations.
