Cleriyou.

It's been one month since I first started writing clerihews based on the people on my friends list. In that time I've written thirty-six clerihews, encompassing thirty-two friends, leaving twenty-one people clerihewless.

I guess this has been going on long enough that those twenty-one are starting to wonder why they haven't been versified. Well, here's the reason: First, despite the brevity of the verses, these do actually take quite a while to write, often involving extensive research into rhymes and pronunciation. Which leads to the second reason, many of those left to be done have names that I haven't quite figured out how to rhyme/pronounce. Third, I need to feel that I know enough about the subject to encapsulate him or her into four lines, which is difficult sometimes. In fact, there are one or two clerihews I'd like to redo as well.

But to [livejournal.com profile] grellong, [livejournal.com profile] highersoul, [livejournal.com profile] ifmud, [livejournal.com profile] limax, [livejournal.com profile] lno, [livejournal.com profile] mangofandango, [livejournal.com profile] merde, [livejournal.com profile] miseri, [livejournal.com profile] natecull, [livejournal.com profile] orenr, [livejournal.com profile] original_sinner, [livejournal.com profile] parsergirl, [livejournal.com profile] quinnclub, [livejournal.com profile] sarrabellum, [livejournal.com profile] sineala, [livejournal.com profile] sinsselfchosen, [livejournal.com profile] sivet, [livejournal.com profile] solipsiae, [livejournal.com profile] tamaraland, [livejournal.com profile] watermelonpunch and [livejournal.com profile] zephine, rest assured that I will get to you as soon as I can.
