If you have a lot of time.

They are quite fun to do, actually,

If you can make them rhyme.

And also they require

An extensive vocabulary,

Like supercilious, ignoramus,

Cosmetology and secretary.

And if you want to go further,

The have to have a style,

A rhythm that defines them,

That makes reading them worthwhile.

All right, let's face it,

Poems are not what their cracked up to be,

But I love to write them,

There must be something wrong with me.
