Mad Song Stanzas
To write a mad song takes
so very little time:
just jot some words
not too absurd
and make sure that some rhyme.
The first line stands alone;
the next rhymes with the last.
Then you can do
the middle two;
I tell you, it’s a blast!
The meter’s all iambs;
the lengths all six and four.
It’s nice and neat,
so short and sweet;
you’ll soon come back for more.

A Mad Song Stanza: 6x:6a:4b:4b:6a, using iambs
