How to Rhyme on a Dime
First, of course, you need a dime.
Then you need a table shorter than a mime,
but tall enough for you to do your rhyme
while standing on the dime.
Next, you’ll want a glass of water with a slice of lime,
Without that, doing your rhymes could be a crime.
Or not, but do you want to be in jail wasting your prime?
Once all that is in place and on time,
place upon the floor your dime.
Then, stand on it and get ready to rhyme.
Remember, not every word needs to rhyme,
Not rhyming your verses is not a crime,
But give it some time
Because politicians are as wacky as a drunken mime.
So, be careful when you are writing a rhyme,
Big Sister is watching you all of the time.
But, for now, you needn’t worry if you can’t pull off a decent rhyme,
As you can just make the lines as long as you can to end them with a chipper chime.
When ending your rhyme,
Don’t worry about the time,
Just throw in a dash of thyme,
But maybe not on your lime.
Because that could very well be a crime.
Oh, and now you can get off your dime.
But don’t spend it all in one place, except for a pinch of thyme.
But that may not look right to some watchful stopper of crime.
And you could get busted, and thrown to the ground in grime,
And get yourself covered in an oily slime,
Before being tossed in a slammer, which would not be sublime.
And you’d wait until the test results came back and showed it was only thyme.
Oops, they’ll say and send you on your way, with your original clothes, still covered in slime.
Maybe you should have just found a rock to climb.
