Here we have a new form of verse,
Must have one hundred letters.
Be tricky, but it could be worse.
I’m leaving “how” up to my betters!

(Also, must be a quatrain with rhyme scheme abab.

My suggestion if you try this, is to pick your rhymes first. Make them simple words that have a lot of rhymes!

Then just fill in the doggerel. Again, simple words that are easy to change around. It may help to try for 25 letters a line.)
