She felt violated, we know.
It was OK to picture that bash;
For cash.
The engineer James Watt,
Watched a boiling pot.
He thought, “Will steam lift the lid?”
It did.

As Legolas, he's quite beguiling.
from forest glen to elvin home,
he flitters on through Tolkein's tome.
Ella Fitzgerald, her voice a bright note,
sang high and low straight from her throat.
The lady sang jazz
with a lot of pizzaz.
Jonathan Edwards, a preacher
said that God knew every creature.
and pictured sinners in God's ire,
dangling very close to fire.

Posted a clerihew to enter the fray.

Favoured the rise of the meritocrat.
While bathing his aches away
He met Charlotte Corday.

invented odd gadgets at will.
But his orders soon got so batty
His troops said "What the Sam Hill was that, eh?"
(High school memory of his invention of the shovel with a hole in it that could also be used as a shield while advancing on the enemy.)
